Jan Pronk was expelled from Sudan because he spoke his mind. As U.N. representative he was supposed to let the U.N. Secretary, Kofy Annan to be the spokeperson of any substantial announcement. He disobeyed and now he has to leave.
I believe Mr. Pronk is savvy enough to know the consequences of his actions; if he chose to publicize the truth about Sudan, I believe is because he knows more about the genocide going on in Sub Saharan Africa than most of us, and decided, with courage, to tell the truth.
He has become one of my heroes, and his blog link is now in the links list of this blog.
