 UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon devoted much of his first days on the job to the three-year conflict in Sudan's Darfur region, which has killed more than 200,000 people and displaced 2.5 million.
Since he took over from Kofi Annan on Jan. 1, the new U.N. chief has been holding daily meetings on Darfur in effort to find a peaceful solution.
On Wednesday, he met the new U.N. special envoy for Darfur, Jan Eliasson. On Thursday, he chaired what he called "a good meeting" with the newly formed Darfur Task Force comprising top U.N. officials.
