Thabo Mbeki, corrupt and incompetent lead negotiation on Sudan for the African Union

30 August 2018 | Photos and Tweets | Author: ereeves | 114 words

Thabo Mbeki, lead negotiator for the peculiarly named “Africa Union High-Level Implementation Panel” (AUHIP), is reported by Sudan Tribune to be on the way out, as the African Union has finally tired of his corrupt and incompetent ways. The “Implementation” in the AUHIP acronym refers to “implementation” of Mbeki’s complete disaster of 2009: his “Roadmap for Peace in Darfur.” Its failure cleared diplomatic space for the equally ill-fated “Doha Document for Peace in Darfur” (DDPD) which has achieved nothing other than making alternative peace negotiations impossible: the Khartoum regime cleaves vigorously to the DDPD precisely because it has failed.

Mbeki’s relationship to the Khartoum regime has always been entirely too cozy, indeed corrupt.
