PRESS RELEASE
February 1, 2005
Statement on Ratification of the Peace Treaty in Sudan Today, the
Parliament of Sudan unanimously ratified the agreement signed between
the government of Sudan and the Sudanese People?s Liberation
Movement. Thus, the two-decades long civil war in Sudan comes to an
end.
The ratification of the agreement between the two sides paves the way
for the drafting of an interim constitution, which foresees holding a
referendum on the independence of Southern Sudan in six years.
The MFA of the Republic of Armenia welcomes the decision of the
Sudanese authorities which is based on the principle of recognizing
the right of a people to self-determination, and expresses the hope
that the agreement signed between the sides opens a new page of peace
and prosperity in the history of Sudan.
