"Sudan: "The right terms for a wrong engagement," Alain Délétroz, International Crisis Group 

In the February 11, 2010 edition of "European Voice," Délétroz lays out clearly and compellingly the blunt truths about Sudan's April elections. There can be little quarreling with his main conclusion: "The decision by the EU's foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, to send an EU observation mission to monitor Sudan's elections in April this year is a triumph of hope over experience. Observers will not prevent the ruling National Congress Party from rigging the process, and, worse, their presence risks legitimising a regime headed by an indicted war criminal, Omar al-Bashir."
