达尔富尔危机早就应该结束，而且根本就不应该发生。过去三年中，已有 200 万人流离失所，20 万人被杀害。经过几个月的谈判，一项和平协议——《达尔富尔和平协议》——终于在今年 4 月签署。三个月前，安理会召开了外长级会议，对此表示欢迎，并且期待达尔富尔人民有一个更加光明的未来。
The crisis in Darfur, which should never have started, has gone on far too long. Over the past three years, 2 million people have been displaced and 200,000 have been killed. After months of negotiations, a peace deal — the Darfur Peace Agreement (DPA) — was finally signed in April this year. Three months ago, the Council met at the foreign-minister level to welcome this and to look ahead to a brighter future for the people of Darfur.
