Condemns the continued attacks on civilians in Darfur by the government of Sudan and violations of the N'Djamena Ceasefire Agreement by the government and rebels in Darfur (particularly the Sudan Liberation Army).
Commends the Africa Union Mission in Sudan (AMIS) in monitoring the Agreement in Darfur and its role in diminishing some acts of violence.
Calls on: (1) all parties to abide by the terms of the Agreement and engage in good-faith negotiations to end the conflict in Darfur; (2) the government of Sudan to withdraw all military aircraft from the region, to cease all support for the Janjaweed militia and rebels from Chad, and to disarm the Janjaweed; and (3) the African Union to request assistance from the United Nations (U.N.) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) to deter violence and instability until a U.N. peacekeeping force is deployed in Darfur.
Urges the President to take steps to help improve the security situation in Darfur, including calling upon NATO allies, led by the United States, to support a NATO mission in Darfur and the AMIS.
