Uganda: Museveni hits out at UN over Darfur comparison

President Museveni hit out U.N. Emergency Relief Coordinator Jan Egeland for suggesting that the suffering caused by war in northern Uganda was comparable to that in Sudan's strife-torn Darfur. Egeland urged the international community last week to focus on northern Uganda and the atrocities of the Lord's Resistance Army. Museveni questioned, "In what way is it like Darfur? True, people are in camps because of attacks by the terrorists. But it seems some people don't want us to defeat the terrorists."
