The third international conference on peace opportunities in Darfur kicks off on Friday in Nyala, capital of Sudan's South Darfur State.
United Nations-African Union Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) chief Ibrahim Gambari, as well as envoys to Sudan from China, Russia, Canada, Finland, Japan, the Arab League (AL), the African Union ( AU), the UN and the European Union (EU) attended the meeting.
The conference would discuss the Darfur peace process and exchange ideas on the initiatives aiming at enhancing sustainable peace in the region.
Russian Special Envoy to Sudan Mikhail Margelov, said security and humanitarian issues topped the agenda of the meeting.
He said the meeting would discuss the political process and peace status in Darfur and review results of the tripartite meeting for the joint peacekeeping mission that was held recently in Addis Ababa.
The first meeting of the international envoys to Sudan on Darfur was convened in Rwandan capital of Kigali in February 2010 and the second in El-Fasher, Sudan, in July the same year.
