The UN Human Rights Commission adopted a resolution Thursday condemning abuses in Sudan and accepting compromise wording on improving the situation in the embattled Darfur region. The resolution, passed by consensus and adopted without a roll-call vote, had support from Sudan and other African nations, the United States, the European Union and others. It was approved after the EU withdrew a more strongly worded document. The final resolution was the result of weeks of negotiations between the EU, the United States and African nations.The African countries agreed to remove wording that praised the Sudanese government's steps to improve the situation in Darfur, while the Western countries dropped specific condemnation of the Sudanese government. The resolution said, "The commission condemns continued, widespread and systematic violations by all parties of human rights and international humanitarian law" in Darfur. It specifically condemned "the violence against civilians and sexual violence against women and girls, destruction of villages, widespread displacement and other violations."
