Opening a conference of leaders from the entire Darfur region in El Fashir Saturday, Moses urged the African ethnic groups and Arabs in the area to end the current suspicions and patch up the torn social fabric.

Mashar also called on police forces to establish friendly relations with citizens and maintain security and stability.

Assuring the leaders that peace would be restored to Darfur within the coming months, he stressed the need to open passage-ways to enable the displaced population to return to their villages of origin to participate in the agricultural season.

Addressing the same conference, the deputy speaker of parliament, Anglo Bida, Bida encouraged the disputing parties in Darfur learn from the spirit that led to the sighning of the wealth and power sharing agreements by the government in Khartoum and the southern Sudan People's Liberation Movement/Army(SPLM/A) in January 2005.

Two rebel movements, the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) ands to put and the Sudan Liberation Movement (SLM) resorted to arms in February 2003 to press for an equitable allocation of wealth to their remote area.

Bida called on the Darfur leaders to copy the spirit that led to an end to war in southern Sudan through peaceful means after more than two decades of fighting between government forces and the SPLA.

Meanwhile, the political secretary of the ruling National Congress, Majzoub Al Khalifa, who led the government delegation to the peace talks with Darfur rebels in Ethiopia and Nigeria, said the government was fully prepared to engage in talks with them at any place.

The next round of peace talks between Khartoum and the SLM and the JEM is set to resume later this month.

The political secretary warned against rumours and incorrect information propagated by the rebel groups and certain United Nations agencies.
