KHARTOUM, Dec. 9 (Xinhua) -- The Implementation Follow-up Commission (IFC) of the Doha Document for Peace in Darfur (DDPD) on Sunday urged the international community to support the deal and development projects in the region.

In IFC's 14th meeting held in the Sudanese capital Khartoum, Mutlaq bin Majed al-Qahtani, the special envoy of Qatar's Foreign Minister for Counterterrorism and Mediation of Conflict Resolution as well as IFC chairman, reiterated relative stability of security situations in Darfur.

"Darfur is witnessing relative calmness, but the absence of security remains a challenge crippling the implementation of several items of the DDPD. Therefore, we stress the importance of disarmament and reintegration," he said.

Al-Qahtani further stressed the need for supporting the implementation of the DDPD and establishment of development projects in Darfur, urging the international community to provide further contributions to achieve it.

The United Nations African Union Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) Joint Special Representative, Jeremiah Mamabolo, told reporters that "the meeting congratulated and appreciated the relative peace and stability existing now in Darfur."

The IFC, chaired by Qatar, is the major mechanism for monitoring implementation of the DDPD. Enditem
