Clinton told Sudan Vice President Ali Osman Taha that the January 9 plebiscite on the independence of south Sudan could be an opportunity for the northern government in Khartoum, which critics accuse of foot-dragging before the vote, U.S. officials said. "We know that every day is important and we do have expectations that both north and south need to take very specific steps (to) cooperate," Crowley told reporters after the meeting. "The secretary made clear that the door to improved relations with the United States ... will open depending on Khartoum's cooperation," Crowley said. U.S. President Barack Obama is among those scheduled to attend a special summit on Sudan on Friday on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly meeting. U.N. officials say the summit is intended to send a strong signal to north and south Sudan that the world is committed to helping Africa's largest country ensure that the secession referendum -- which finalizes the 2005 peace deal which ended decades of war between the two sides -- takes place on time. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Tuesday named Tanzania's former President Benjamin Mkapa as head of a panel to monitor the plebiscites both in the south and in the disputed oil-rich region of Abyei. INCENTIVES There are widespread concerns that Sudan does not have enough time to organize the votes, and Crowley said Clinton pressed Taha to support the country's electoral commission, prepare ballots and register voters -- all essential steps if the plebiscite is to take place. "Vice President Taha was very direct: there are some things that Sudan wants to get out of its future relations with the United States," Crowley said of the meeting. "I think there was a very good understanding of the opportunities but also the consequences and the importance of Khartoum demonstrating its commitment" to the 2005 peace agreement, he said. Clinton's meeting with Taha followed Washington's offer this month of a new set of incentives to Khartoum, which has been under international sanctions since the mid-1990s. The United States says it will gradually improve both economic and diplomatic relations, with the prospect of full normalization if Khartoum allows the vote to take place, fully implements the 2005 peace deal and resolves outstanding issues in the western region of Darfur. Rights groups have criticized the United States for not being tough enough on the Khartoum government, and the new U.S. policy does not publicly spell out specific consequences that may ensue if it obstructs or delays the vote. "I think that our focus right now is to demonstrate to Khartoum that ... if you work constructively in the post-referendum period, then there are clear opportunities available to you," Crowley said. 1 2 Next World Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
