Christian Science Monitor: Bigger US role battling genocide? A genocide prevention task force concludes that US leadership, early warnings, preventive diplomacy, and coordinated international action are crucial elements of any effort to prevent the kind of mass killings that have ravaged Sudan's Darfur and the Congo. That may sound like another well-meaning Washington study destined to gather dust. But the fate of this task force - led by two Clinton administration foreign-policy heavyweights, Madeleine Albright and William Cohen - might be a little brighter. One reason: The conclusion of its year-long labor corresponds with President-elect Obama's naming to his national-security team a diplomat who has advocated swift action when genocide threatens.

Agence France-Presse: Sarkozy warns time running out for Sudan's Beshir. French President Nicolas Sarkozy warned Sudan's leader Omar al-Beshir on Monday that he must take action for peace in Darfur in the coming days or be forced to answer to the UN war crimes tribunal. "We need the help of the Sudanese government to finally find peace in Darfur," Sarkozy said in an address to mark 60 years since the adoption of the UN rights declaration. "Either he changes his attitude and the international community can hold discussions with him, or he does not change his attitude and will have to face up to his responsibilities, including before the International Criminal Court," said Sarkozy.
