heads the government in Southern Sudan speaks with U.N.
undersecretary general for humanitarian affairs John Holmes, unseen
in Juba, Southern Sudan, Friday, March 23, 2007. Holmes inaugurated
his term this week with a visit to Sudan, telling senior government
officials they must stop hindering the work of aid groups in the
country. The U.N. says that with over US$650 million in aid planned
this year and more than 14,000 humanitarian workers in the region,
malnutrition and other humanitarian indicators have been brought
below emergency levels in Darfur. ?It is a great success
story that has saved a lot of lives,? Holmes said. ?But
it remains fragile.? (AP Photo/Alfred de Montesquiou)
