 The UN/African Union Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) has agreed with the government of South Darfur State to form a joint commission to examine the situation of the Internally Displaced People (IDPs) in the Kalma Camp in the State.
This came during a meeting between the special representative of UNAMID, Rodolphe Adada and the governor of the South Darfur State, Ali Mahmoud, in Nyala.
Mr. Adada and Governor Mahmoud also agreed to review the security situation at the Kalma Camp and to work out a plan to peacefully disarm any armed elements in the Camp.
Both sides agreed that arms in the IDP Camps pose a security threat not only to other displaced people but also to humanitarian workers delivering assistance.
The authorities of South Darfur State had earlier sent a letter to the African Union Mission in Sudan threatening to use force to disarm the armed elements in the Kalma Camp.
Wider reactions on Chinese troops
The Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) announced that the deployment of Chinese Forces in Darfur is not welcome, saying that China provides arms for the Sudanese Government.
The spokesman of the JEM, Haroun Abdul Hamid, told Miraya FM that China sent these troops to protect its interest in the oil areas.
Meanwhile, a cheif at Salaam displaced camp in Darfur, Ahmed Atim, told Miraya FM that they will not welcome the Chinese forces to the region.
The ten united Darfur Movements meeting in Juba also criticized Beijing.
They stressed that the Chinese soldiers should not think they are immuned against attacks.
The Spokesman of the ten united Darfur Movements, Issam Al-Haj, said that sending foreign forces to Darfur without their approval will lead to complications in the security situation in the region.
