Uganda promised earlier this month to send 50 policemen to Sudan's Darfur region as part of the African Union (AU) peacekeeping effort. For nearly two decades Uganda and Sudan engaged in an on-again off-again war, as Sudan supported the LRA gangs in Uganda, and Uganda provided support for the SPLA in southern Sudan.
