Thank you, Mr. Dorion.
I met with representatives of the Arab league at their headquarters in Cairo. I have to say the discussions focused primarily on the situation in Darfur. In my view, the Arab League's approach is generally very positive and constructive. The organization is heavily involved in the Darfur issue and promotes an approach in line with the peace process negotiated in Doha.
As far as the referendum itself goes, we exchanged views. The representatives of the Arab League have some influence in Khartoum. I for one believe that they can press the Sudanese government to uphold its commitments under the Comprehensive Peace Agreement. So then, in answer to your question, yes.
