‘Decision to sign Doha agreement should not be rushed’: Duma

The chairman of the Darfuri Lawyers’ Union, Mohammed Abdullah Duma, asked Dr. Tijani Sese and the Liberation and Justice Movement to not rush the decision to sign a peace agreement in Doha. “They should wait until the presence of the other movements are confirmed. This way they can sign the convention together”, he said to Radio Dabanga. He added that he and the other members of the Lawyer Union will increase their efforts to persuade the leaders of movements who have so far stayed outside of the negotiations to come to Qatar.
