Chinese Agree to Send Envoy to Darfur
After months of scrutiny China sees it as a good idea so send an envoy to Darfur. The Chinese government has a very intimate relationship with the Sudanese, as China has interests in Sudan's vast oil reserves. China is making friends throughout the African continent as a means of securing oil to fuel China's boom.
China has been accused by the US and UN of selling arms to the Sudanese government, arms which make their way into the hands of the governments Janjaweed Militias and adds further to the atrocities throughout Darfur.
It was only after the US sent Hu-JinTao a letter regarding their economic and arms meddling in Sudan, that China reacted.
If China is looking to make friends in Africa they should also make friends with the people of Africa, as opposed to their leaders and most importantly Resources.
