Egypt and Libya criticize Ethiopian president's remarks on Sudan
Sudan, Politics, 7/4/2000

Egypt and Libya criticized the declarations of the Ethiopian President Ngaso Gidada in which he said that "Ethiopia is still committed to supporting the peace initiative of the governmental organization for development I.G.A.D which aims at gathering the Sudanese government and the public movement around the negotiation table."

Egyptian and Libyan officials said that I.G.A.D heads to a solution between the public movement for liberating Sudan and Khartoum's government and that it could be replaced by the joint Libyan - Egyptian initiative which emphasizes a solution to Sudan's crisis with all the opposition parties with the government.

The officials who refused to mention their names added that "despite of having 6 years passed since the start of I.G.A.D, yet it did not achieve any progress and its parties must work under the umbrella of the joint initiative if they want Sudan's interests."
