Plans to the United Nations and the African Union to reduce the numbers of joint forces for peacekeeping in Sudan's Darfur region after the decline of organized violence unit of the region, as a UN official said Wednesday in the conclusion of a meeting on this issue in Addis Ababa.

Said Herve Ladsous Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations in charge of keeping the peace "under the decision of the Secretary-General and the Security Council intend to reduce the size of the peacekeeping forces in Darfur (Minwad) during the next eighteen months."

And Ladsous, who was speaking at the conclusion of a meeting between representatives of the United Nations and the African Union and the Sudanese government, did not want to clarify the magnitude of the reduction will happen, and said that the Security Council will consider this issue later.

Word of the reasons "general improvement in the security situation in Darfur." He said the UN official, "There is definitely an increase in the crime of public right, which threaten the safety of civilians and constitutes one of the most prominent sources of concern, but organized violence dropped significantly."

Is likely to cause any reduction of force, consisting of 28 thousand soldiers and police officers from the resentment of many international activists who have continued to accuse Sudan of committing war crimes against civilians in the region, a claim denied by Khartoum.

And the largest peacekeeping force in the world and published by the United Nations in conjunction with the African Union after the outbreak of violence in the region in 2003 and forced hundreds of thousands of residents to flee their homes.
