Peacekeeping in Darfur

An international debate surrounds peacekeeping in Darfur. How can the peacekeeping operation there be made more effective in order to provide genuine security for the Darfur population? Can the African Union forces be strengthened? Should the AU effort be transformed into a UN peacekeeping operation? Might NATO provide interim support until the UN can take over? How do the Government of Sudan and the AU view these proposed changes? What role should the U.S. play?
