N: President Numayri seems resolved to
rea!i an aaccommodation with the southern rebels,
but the provisional agreement signed this week will
be difficult to implement.
25X1
There are still considerable obstacles to a
final resolution of the conflict. The first hurdle
for both sides will be to overcome deep mutual dis-
trust and to achieve broad support for the provi-
sional agreement. This is a particularly complex
problem for the Anya-Nya, whose leadership is frag-
mented and whose forces are dispersed throughout
the wide expanse of the three southern provinces.
One leading political dissident has already de-
nounced the parley and claims that his views are
shared by a number of Anya-Nya commanders in the
field.
Numayri's main task is to sell the agreement
to the army, whose support is critical to his stay-
ing in power. The pro-Egyptian faction in the mil-
itary and within the government itself may object
on the ground that an autonomous black southern re-
gion would further dilute Sudan's Arab identity!

Another possible impediment is the still un-
known attitude of the Israelis, whose arms deliver-
ies and training in recent years- have substantially
strengthened the rebel forces.
