第二，我们认为，通过阿布贾和平进程以及为监督执行《恩贾梅纳协定》和《阿布贾协定》而部署非洲联盟驻苏丹特派团(非盟驻苏特派团)，非洲联盟在寻求和平政治解决中承担的义务和责任已经超过了它公平的份额。非洲联盟在接管和处理危机方面出色地履行了义务。但是，它自己承认，恢复达尔富尔和平任务的重担和复杂性使它捉襟见肘和疲于奔命。在非洲联盟不放弃责任的情况下，国际社会其他国家通过联合国承担共同责任，帮助苏丹解决这场日益恶化的长期危机是正确和恰当的。今天的决议响应了非洲通过非洲联盟发出的这项呼吁。
Secondly, we believe that the African Union has taken more than its fair share of the obligation and responsibility in the search for a peaceful political solution, through the Abuja peace process and through the deployment of the African Union Mission in the Sudan (AMIS) to oversee the implementation of both the N’Djamena and Abuja Agreements. The African Union has discharged its obligations superbly in terms of the ownership and the handling of the crisis. But, by its own admission, it is overwhelmed and overstretched by the magnitude and complexity of the task of restoring peace to Darfur. Without the African Union abdicating its responsibility, it is right and proper that the rest of the international community, through the United Nations, should assume joint responsibility to help the Sudan resolve this long-running crisis, which is getting worse. Today’s resolution heeds that appeal by Africa, through the African Union.
