Kofi Annan visited a refugee camp during the weekend in Darfur,Sudan.
He met refugees who made desperate pleas to him for protection and aid.
Clearly the Sudanese government is doing nothing substantial to halt the attacks (which they instigated to quell a local rebellion) on
the Darfurians whilst continually making false assurances and promises to Western governments including stating that they are powerless to stop the militia.
