KHARTOUM (AFP) — UN envoy to Darfur, Jan Eliasson, told reporters in Khartoum the five-year Darfur conflict was deteriorating, citing the meltdown in relations between Sudan and Chad, the JEM attack on Khartoum, and separate fighting between north and south in the oil flashpoint of Abyei.
"It's a very negative trend and I am very disturbed... Since the end of last year things have gone in the wrong direction.  If there is an escalation at this stage and at the same time the rainy season starts, we may enter a catastrophic situation," said Eliasson.
