CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - A top human rights group accused China and Russia on Tuesday of violating a U.N. arms embargo by supplying Sudan with weapons and equipment that were used to fuel deadly violence against civilians in Darfur and neighboring Chad.
Moscow and Beijing, which have balked at U.S. and British efforts to put new pressure on their trade ally Sudan, quickly rejected Amnesty International's allegations. Sudan said the report was false.
"The report is totally incorrect. ... It is the sort of claim that has no material proof," Sudanese government spokesman Bakri Mulah told The Associated Press from Khartoum.
