 * Peace in Sudan **

There is a conflict taking place right now in Darfur, Sudan. This conflict began when Sudanese Arabs needed more land to raise livestock because there was a drought and their land was no longer good enough. Arabs formed a group called the Janjaweed, who are supported by the Sudanese Government. They then began raping, killing, and driving out Black Africans from their villages. Black Africans then formed a rebel group against the government. Through all of the problems right now, Black Africans are fighting for land, power, and even their lives. The Janjaweed continue to slaughter the Black Africans, causing what is known to be a modern day genocide.
 * Preamble **

The situation right now in Darfur is that the Arabs have all of the power. The whole problem with the genocide is that the Janjaweed is killing the Black Villagers because they want all of the power in Darfur. The SLA, an African rebel group, wants to share the power with the Arabs. Since the Arabs solution is to kill the Africans in order to gain power, obviously we can not agree with that. So, the solution to this problem is that both the Black Africans along with the SLA must share the power with the Arabs. Since we proposed that Sudan be split evenly between the Arabs and the Black Africans, They will each have their own government system.
 * Article 1: Political Power **

The SLA is an African rebel group in Darfur. They SLA are fighting against the Janjaweed and the government, because they are the ones supplying the Janjaweed. The SLA is fighting against the Janjaweed because the Janjaweed are killing Black Villagers because they want to drive them out so Arabs have power. The problem here is that the SLA is fighting for innocent villagers and all they want is to share the land with the Arabs. The solution to this problem is that the land has to be split. Since the Black Villagers and the Janjaweed already are split into two different groups, they can live separately. The land will be split equally between the two groups and they can live separately. Also, the SLA don’t want all of the power like the Arabs do, they just want to share power with the Arabs. So the power should be split evenly between the Africans and the Arabs.
 * Article 2: SLA Interest **

There are Arabs that are known to be called the Janjaweed that live in Sudan. They want to receive all the land they can get. The Janjaweed plan on doing this by driving out all the Black Africans. Which they are currently doing by killing them and burning down there houses. At the same time the parties must reach an agreement that stops the conflict for good. People are now knowing that this is Genocide. Many people are being murdered and we are here to make all of this come to and end and stop. The solution would be that we will be splitting the country up to different sections. In different parts of Sudan the people can do there trade and live there lives. When it comes to people being in a drought will can move them to different sections where the land isn’t as bad.
 * Article 3: Killing Must End **

The International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant against President Bashir for the crimes in Darfur has brought Sudan to a new decision point. The National Congress Party (NCP) has gained African Union (AU) and Arab League pressure on the Security Council to suspend the case and restricted humanitarian aid in Darfur, putting several million internally displaced persons and others at risk. Sudan will have peace only when its impunity system is destroyed. The solution will be to build leverage by strongly backing the ICC by persuading the NCP that it will only secure the deferral of Bashir’s case by adopting and put in effect serious reforms.
 * Article 4: ** **ICC- Justice**

China's continued unwillingness to cooperate with international efforts in the restive western Darfur region. The rising Asian economic superpower has significant business interests in Sudan having invested an estimated $10 billion in Sudan since the 1960s, according to the Council on Foreign Relations. The country of 1.3 billion people also has a growing thirst for oil and Sudan provides up to 10 percent of that oil, making China Sudan's largest trade partner. The solution would be to make an agreement between China and Sudan. Have China be able to still receive oil as long as they stop the Genocide. If this agreement does not work then we will come up with another agreement that deals with China and Sudan both getting what they want. The issue with land right now is that there is a drought and the Janjaweed need more land to raise livestock. Since they need to get more land, they are driving out the Black Africans so they can take their land to farm on. The solution to this problem is that the land will be split evenly between the Arabs and the Black Africans. The solution to the drought problem is that there will be irrigation systems built to produce water for their crops and to grow grass so they can raise their livestock.
 * Article 5: China’s Interest **
 * Article 6: Land **

Sudan’s rising oil production has shifted the balance of military power in the government’s favor. The United States is interested in Sudan’s region. They themselves want to be apart of the whole oil and money. The solution would be to make an agreement between the United States and China that it would be like a trade situation. If they each want oil they can trade the oil for money or other things because the United States and China have a good relationship with there trade also. 
 * Article 7: United States Interest **
