Refugees burden Chad

2004-07-28 12:47

Nairobi - Chadian President Idriss Deby has said the huge influx of refugees from Sudan has brought his country into a dire situation, reports said on Wednesday.

The population of Chad is in "deep need" of assistance, he told the British Broadcasting Corporation in the Chadian capital N'Djamena after a meeting with French Foreign Minister Michel Barnier.

The conflict in the Darfur region of neighbouring Sudan has sent 180 000 Sudanese fleeing over the border, more than doubling the population in eastern Chad in recent months. Already scarce resources have diminished further.

Deby appealed to the European Union for help.

Barnier was in Chad and western Sudan as part of a three-day African tour. He was due to go to South Africa on Wednesday. - Sapa-dpa

Francois says... Godfrey, it never was the intention to give the explanations you are asking for. My comment was in reply to the article and not to instigate the debate on whether there is a God or not or why He allows suffering or whether Jesus is alive or not. This is not the place to debate it and from your comments I will deduct that you are not Christian and probably atheistic - I don't think a ranting from your side will change my faith and I don't think a sermon from my side will turn you into a believer. Disregarding your non - believe in God, He still believes in you and disregarding the fact that the leaders of Zimbabwe feel that they have the favour of God, the people of Zimbabwe is still loved by God and he will provide for them, even if it is only with fair judgement.
