US and UN Action in Sudan, especially Darfur; US Policy Toward Africa
Speaker:
Haywood Rankin, retired Foreign Service Officer
Haywood Rankin's Foreign Service career was primarily in the Middle East and
Africa, or in Washington dealing with relations in those areas.
Since retirement, he has been called back on short-term missions to various countries.
His latest assignment was in Khartoum, Sudan from which he returned in October.
He will guide us through the US and UN negotiations with the Sudan over
