The United States, Britain and Norway on Tuesday denounced a plan by Sudan's military rulers to hold elections after a deadly crackdown on protesters, calling instead for an "orderly transition" to civilian rule.
"By ordering these attacks, the Transitional Military Council has put the transition process and peace in Sudan in jeopardy," the three powers active on Sudan said in a joint statement.
