 KHARTOUM, Sudan (AP) - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says there has been progress in Darfur but the world will not accept mere promises from Sudan's new government to halt the violence.
The United States is making a difference to help refugees and stop atrocities, Rice said before arriving in the Sudanese capital. She said a new unified government in Khartoum has a chance to help the country recover from what she reaffirmed was genocide in ravaged Darfur.
"The United States believes that by our accounts it was and is genocide," Rice said after a trade conference in Dakar, Senegal. "That has not changed," she said, since her predecessor, Colin Powell, used that term a year ago.
