Mr. Chair, the minister highlighted the international community's efforts to persuade the government to accept the UN's presence in Darfur.
However, there are two countries, Russia and China, that are apparently very good friends with the authorities in Darfur. I would like to know what Canada has done, whether it has done anything, and whether it plans to do anything to persuade these two countries to exert pressure on the President of Darfur to allow United Nations intervention.
