MALAWI CANCELS AFRICAN UNION SUMMIT OVER SUDAN'S AL BASHIR

STATEMENT BY VICE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF MALAWI KHUMBO KACHALI ON AFRICAN UNION SUMMIT AND PRESIDENT OF SUDAN OMAR AL BASHIR

LILONGWE. 8 JUNE. 2012

Fellow Malawians:

I wish to inform the Malawi nation that we received a communication from the African Union Commission regarding the forthcoming African Union Summit scheduled to be held in Lilongwe next month. The African Union Commission has informed the Government that as a host nation, Malawi is under obligation to invite all Heads of States and Government including President Al Bashir of Sudan. The African Union Commissions position is that if we are not willing to receive President Al Bashir, they will remove the summit out of Malawi.

It has also been brought to our attention that the Government of Sudan has formally written to the African Union Commission requesting them to shift the Summit from Malawi to Ethiopia because of our position on the matter of President Al Bashir.

The Cabinet met today, June 8, 2012 to deliberate the matter. The Cabinet noted that the State preparedness of the country is beyond doubt. This was confirmed by the Evaluation Mission from the African Union which was in the country last week and which left the country satisfied with the progress made on all aspects of our hosting obligations.

However, Cabinet decided that it is not in the best interests of Malawians to accept the condition put forward by the African Union Commission to receive President Al Bashir. Cabinet therefore took a decision that Malawi will not be hosting the African Union Summit and we have informed the African Union Commission.

Cabinet took this position with the primary consideration of what is in the best interests of Malawians. While we have obligations to abide by the decisions of the African Union, we are also under obligation to other international obligations including the Rome Statutes.

Fellow Malawians, Malawi will therefore not be hosting the African Union Summit
