UNITED NATIONS — British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Wednesday that he wants “the whole world” to demand that Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir reverse his expulsion of 13 foreign aid organizations and three local ones that worked in Darfur.
“The humanitarian agencies that are working in Sudan should be allowed to stay there and continue their work,” Brown told reporters at U.N. headquarters during a brief appearance with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon.
The British leader’s comments came as al-Bashir was welcomed by Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo on Wednesday despite an international warrant seeking the Sudanese leader’s arrest on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Darfur region.
