Sudan has again warned it cannot guarantee the safety of UN and African Union peacekeepers in Darfur if its president is indicted for war crimes.
A presidential adviser said that if the International Criminal Court indicted Omar al-Bashir, Sudan could not be held responsible for the troops' well-being.
Earlier this month, the ICC prosecutor asked judges in The Hague to issue an arrest warrant for President Bashir.
The judges are expected to announce their decision in a few weeks' time.
The adviser, Bona Malual, told the BBC German pilots' union calls for more walkouts ...

Armies 'head for central Sudan' ... the government was not expelling the troops, or even threatening them.
It was, he said, simply saying how Sudan would view the situation.
Seven UN peacekeepers were killed in an ambush in northern Darfur the week before the prosecutor's request.
