Another political analyst Dr. Mohamed Hussein believed that the opportunities for reaching a comprehensive peace agreement in Darfur are greatly reducing under continuation of the military confrontations in the region.

"It seems very difficult just to resume the Doha peace talks, let alone reaching a peaceful settlement. It is certain that these armed confrontations will negatively affect the moves by the joint mediator team," Hussein told Xinhua.

The Sudanese government and the JEM are trading accusations ahead of arrival of the government delegation to the Doha talks on Saturday to hold consultations with the Qatari mediation to achieve peace in Darfur despite mulling by JEM to withdraw.

On Friday the Sudanese army announced that it killed tens of JEM rebels in fighting in West Darfur State after the JEM attacked a convoy of trucks in the state that resulted in killing of 27 policemen.

Sudanese Army spokesman Al-Sawarmy Khalid said his forces killed 108 of the rebels and arrested 61 others in battles in West Darfur State where the Sudanese army troops recaptured Jabel Moon area near Geneina. However, the army spokesman did not speak about the loss within the army in the battles.

JEM, on the other hand, described the situation in Darfur as a "state of war," where JEM spokesman Ahmed Hussein Adam told reporters that "this situation is not by the desire of the movement but by the government. We will not return to the negotiations in Doha because the National Congress Party (NCP) is still thinking of security and military solutions."

The joint UN-AU mediator Djibril Bassole announced the negotiations between the Sudanese government and the JEM would resume soon in Doha.

He told reporters following talks with the Chadian President Idriss Deby Itno in the Chadian capital N'Djamena that "we are preparing to resume the negotiations which have suspended because of the elections. The Sudanese delegation will head to Doha soon. I will personally meet the JEM leader Khalil Ibrahim to specify with him means of resuming the negotiations."

The Sudanese government and the JEM on February 2010 signed in Doha a cease-fire agreement, provided that a peace agreement was to be reached before March 15, 2010, but the agreement faced a violent shake due to exchanged accusations by the two sides of violating it.
