UNITED NATIONS, Oct. 19 (UPI) -- Tensions between Chad and Sudan have stalled efforts to bring peace to the area and help refugees, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Monday.
As U.S. President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton vowed to use both pressure and incentives to help solve the humanitarian crisis caused by the genocide in Sudan's Darfur region, Ban said in a report on the U.N. Mission in the Central African Republic and Chad that Sudan's hostilities with Chad remain a major impediment.
