The United Nations Security Council resolves to…

1996 CE to 2007 CE

The United Nations Security Council resolves to send a new peacekeeping force of seventeen thousand three hundred to Darfur in approving Resolution 1706 on August 31, 2006.

In the following months, however, UNMIS is not able to deploy to Darfur due to the Government of the Sudan's steadfast opposition to a peacekeeping operation undertaken solely by the United Nations.

The UN now embas on an alternative, innovative approach to try to begin stabilize the region through the phased strengthening of AMIS, before transfer of authority to a joint African Union/United Nations peacekeeping operation.

Following prolonged and intensive negotiations with the Government of the Sudan and significant international pressure, the Government of the Sudan finally accepts the peacekeeping operation in Darfur.
