thirdly, it the icc chief prosecutor said that bashir may have skimmed upwards of $9 billion. is that true? what do we know about that? finally, i mentioned in my opening about the 35,000 southerners who remain in the north in forced servitude. in the mid-1990s, i held a hearing on slavery in sudan. was roundry criticized when i had it. but we brought out the point and i even had a mother who told the harrowing story of how they broke into her home it, stole her son, kidnapped her son, gave him an islamic name and then he became part of a slavery regime. what are we doing about that? . >> thank you very much, congressman. on the first question, with regard to the state sponsors of terrorism. first and foremost, they have to meet all the conditions under that law. so it has to be on the merits of that. but secondary, we've also said that the final step has to be in the contempt of their also meeting the conditions of the cpa. so it's first and foremost is they have to meet those criteria and then second, when we would take a step would be when they've also, if they meet all tho

president bashir, you ruled for 20 years. you did couple of agreements.n the cpa came, you didn't maintain the unity of sudan, and you want to continue ruling the sudan. the on what basis? on what legitimacy you want to continue ruling sudan?part so they've got to question the president verse is us the future of the party as a politicald it party. the party versus the future of sudan and the stability of sudan, now it is -- but alsos finding solution to darfur, and also the president verses us thd whole future of sudan.thre between brackets there is the issues of -- [inaudible] those three fundamental questions need to be asked within islamists if they want t, maintain to continue as a viable political party to play. that's why there is those divisions within even the current, and i can go further,j but i can see eyes looking at me.

been pushing quite hard in recent years ever since then the cold war the china's rise to the star bashir lation ship of partnership strategic partners rather than competitors or rivals or enemies. but recent events over the last year or so have suggested to many of us not least in the united states that china is not really interested in that kind of relationship that it wants. wants to start with some of its own priorities specially in the region around its borders and its interests in those the united states increasingly not coinciding. to the partnership whatever it states are coming under strain certainly in which leader would you say going into this meeting is on the more pressure a bomb up he's being eyed steve stands up for the u.s. interests. how he's in your time next year i think barack obama has a lot to do to persuade the american public and the american congress that he is sticking up to china he was accused when he went to beijing in two thousand and nine that was a bit unfair but he didn't get very much achieved and he's had his whole succession of administration officials

in 2008, the iertional imin couinct omarel bashir on g two counts of murder.m encouraged that president obama has remained focus on darfur and intends to revive the stalled negotiations between khartoum and the rebel groups in darf darfur. the people have taken a major step toward self-determination, but there are many difficult days ahead. the new nation will face a large number of challenges from building the basic institutions of statehood to economic development to the reintegration of the returnees. there is little capacity to meet these daunting challenges. if south sudan is to flourish, then the united states, the united nations, and other members of the international community, must continue to assist the people of that nation in their transition to independence and democratic rule. it is important to realize the efforts of the united nations development program to make the referendum a reality. the u.n. dp supported voter education, delivered ballots on schedule and helped to establish and equipment nearly 3,000 registration centers and trained over 8

the two presidents, presidents bashir and president kir of the south met twice to meet, but do you havean alternative solution, ect.? there's been no agreement. this issue remains out there, and it's an important one to get resolved. >> i thank you for joining us today, and that concludes it for today. [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations] >> well, good morning officially, everyone. i'm very happy to welcome you this morning to our program on behalf of the national press foundation. i'm linda topping steitfeld. for those of you ho are not familiar with us, we are based here in washington. we are independent, not affiliated with the national press club or any other organization. we don't take money from the u.s. or any other government. we'd like to take money from you if you'd like to donate. our mission is to provide information, resources for journalists to help them do their jobs better. i want to start by thanking the groups helping us today with that mission. our partners in this series of briefings are the center on congress at indiana university that does such a gre

talked today according to president carter who is here as an observer, he reported that president bashir agreed to take on all of the debt that this country has. but there has been so much acrimony between north and south that no one here quite pays any attention to what is declared from the north because there just isn't credibility for that in the south. >> suarez: if the vote goes as overwhelmingly as predicted in favor of secession, is there a counterpoint? is there a group or a leader who will be able to negotiate with the north on behalf of the people of the south? >> well, the giant leader, the nelson mandela, if you will, although i don't want to stretch that comparison too much, john karang was killed in a plane crash in 2005. the current president was his deputy. and he is a somewhat known quantity. he would be the leader of south sudan. he will be leading a fractious nation which has seen its own ethnic divisions erupt in violence from time to time. there are a number of worries about how well the south will hold together, but again in the euphoria of this vote, everybody is v

for his part, sudan's dictator, omar al bashir, has promised to abide by the results, even as he campaignedn the southern capital juba for a vote for unity. but in unity state, there's only one place we found any support for a unified sudan-- the oilfields just outside bentiu. many of the workers here are from china, who buy most of sudan's oil. but there also are workers from the north, who assumed the unity symbol. "we won't have a problem if the vote goes for separation," they said, "but we want unity, to stay as one nation." now, a show of hands for separation? >> ( translated ): we will have many changes. >> reporter: it's a tall order. south sudan would be one of the poorest nations on earth. paved roads and health clinics are almost nonexistent, and illiteracy is about 85%. add to that a continued fear of renewed violence. the crucial agreement on oil revenue sharing still languishes. and besides north/south tensions, there's also a long history of deadly violence among tribes in the south. but none of that concerns marisa right now. >> ( translated ): all i can think of is to vote.

we also believe that, you know, listen, bashir, the head of the government in khartoum has been charged by the icc for crimes against humanity and even genocide. he would like that to be dropped. we're not even talking about dropping that. he'd like to be taken off the terror watch list. that should be a discussion if he acts legitimately. he's not acting legitimately now. he's now bombing and attacking villages in darfur. he wants to be taken off, well, he's going to have to do a lot better than that. there's a lot of consequences that we can offer -- there is a lot of things that we can offer, certainly not the icc, i wouldn't -- i don't think that should even be on the table, but the terror watch list is one that they'd like to be off, well, you're going to have to act a lot more legitimately than you have to date. >> very briefly, because we only have a minute left, i want to get both of your thoughts on president obama when he ran for president campaigned on ending the genocide in sudan and getting tough with the government in khartoum. very briefly, george and then john, has presi

>> certainly it is important for president bashir to be vocal and as he has been in the saying that he and others should respect the decision of the people of south sudan. we're getting very close within five days of the beginning of actual voting within country. whatever happens, this is a decision for the people of south sudan and comes as part of the implementation of the comprehensive peace agreement. the north and south are going to have some kind of relationship going forward, whether it's one part of one country or two countries and the president has made clear he will respect whatever decision the people of south sudan make. that's an important statement to make. >> in light of what is happening in egypt and nigeria, are you going to give another talk on what is happening in pakistan and india on the christians? >> if you have a specific question -- >> on christians. >> i'll take the question. >> on mr. netanyahu today has told parliament he has written to president obama seeking jonathan pollard's release. no longer a hypothetical. >> we have received a letter from the governm

subcommittee years ago, three hearings on what china is doing in africa, you know, and i people like bashir in zimbabwe, mugabe and so many p others who are dictators love the chinese model of control and secret police.ol a and i'm very worried about the influence that their bad governance model and their badv human rights model is having unless we really speak loud and clear. and i would, again, make my appeal to the president, to the pressnd corps, be public. don't mamby pamby. don't walk on egg shells. speak boldly about -- especially president obama -- about his fellow peace prize winner because he won it last year. this year, obviously, xiaobo wh, is languishing in prison and his wife under house arrest. >> congressman, i'm personally upset about the honor that hu jintao is receiving.u so it's not a measure whether to meet or receive hu jintao, ih agree with you totally. and keeping hu jintao this honor will send two messages to chinas one to chinese government, the other to china's people. to the chinese government that can be described as that we can get away with the atrocities we p

. >> bashir is the big gentleman wearing the wig on the left.nd didn't like. >> oh, my gosh. was he awake? >> he was awake. barely. >> normally my staff isn't up this early in the morning. but thank you for letting us do that. we did a spoof of "the real house wifwive housewives." starting fights all the time! and throwing things! and knocking things over! over pronouncing words. it's ridiculous. it's so dumb, my parents are so proud right now. hi mom, hi dad. >> by the way, if you want to see more jimmy -- i love this. it is not every day somebody gets on the -- ♪ cover of the rolling stone >> oh, man. skating? ♪ get your picture on the cover of the rolling stone ♪ >> how cool is that though? >> i'm the next johnny weir. when am i not ice skating is my question. they got me in action. >> one of my favorites is the one with you in the middle where jimmy jimmy's getting a tat. >> it is a good game called "find the ab." there's one hidden in there. someone's got to work out. >> was that cool though had when they called? >> i'm getting a tweet from

i shared the subcommittee years ago, three hearings on what china is doing in africa, people like bashirt the influence that they are a bad governance and bad human rights model is having unless we really speak loud and clear. and i would again make my appeal to the president, to the press corps, be public. don't walk on egg shells. speak boldly about, especially president obama about his fellow peace prize winner. because he won it last year. this year, liu xiaobo who is in prison and his wife under house arrest. >> congressman, i'm personally upset about the honor that hu jintao is receiving. so it's not a matter of whether to meet or receive hu jintao. it's how to do it. i agree with you totally. keeping hu jintao this honor will send two messages to china. one to china's government and other to china's people. to the government, it can be described as that we can get away with the atrocities that we perpetrated in the past. disappearing people, put noble peace prize winner in jail. we can get away with any human rights violations. the message is to the people. that if u.s. may not be
