 ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - International donors pledged an additional $200 million Thursday to fund the African Union peacekeeping operation in Sudan's western Darfur region during a conference to discuss the ongoing violence.
AU Commission Chairman Alpha Oumar Konare said officials were still analyzing the pledges but that it appeared enough money was raised to bolster the force currently in Darfur.
"There is a clear will. Many states and countries are willing to bridge the gap," Konare told reporters.
