An official from the south's main party told Reuters it would be "unacceptable" to postpone the politically sensitive vote from the January 9 deadline set in a 2005 peace deal that ended Africa's longest-running civil war. The official said Abyei residents might be forced to hold their own referendum without northern approval, raising the prospect of a diplomatic rift or even conflict. Both north and south Sudan claim the oil-producing region and fought over it during a decades-long civil war that killed an estimated 2 million people and forced 4 million to flee. The plebiscite on whether Abyei should be with the north or south is scheduled to occur on the same day as a broader referendum on southern secession. Preparations for both votes are behind schedule. The predominantly Christian and animist southerners, embittered by the conflict and perceived northern exploitation, are widely expected to vote for secession. Relations between the two former foes have remained deeply troubled since the 2005 peace deal and northern and southern forces have clashed in the area since the accord. U.S. President Barack Obama said on Thursday his administration was using a range of diplomatic means to ensure peaceful voting in the referendums. "This is a huge issue, something we're paying a lot of attention to," Obama told young voters, saying millions more could die if new violence erupted in Sudan. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice said south Sudan feared the north may be preparing for war before the referendum on southern independence. In a statement to the U.N. Security Council summarizing the 15-nation panel's trip to Sudan last week, Rice confirmed the president of southern Sudan, Salva Kiir, asked for a U.N.-run 10-mile (16-km) buffer zone along the north-south border. During a meeting with council members in Juba, the capital of semi-autonomous south Sudan, Rice said Kiir had "warned that he fears the north may be preparing for war and may be moving troops southwards. Rice's remarks to the council, a council envoy said, appeared aimed at bolstering the case for a possible Security Council decision in the near future to boost temporarily the number of U.N. peacekeepers deployed in Sudan. A U.N. official told Reuters on condition of anonymity that the U.N. peacekeeping department was preparing plans to redeploy some peacekeepers in hotspots along the border between north and south Sudan. Redeploying peacekeepers does not require Security Council approval.
