Next month's Beijing summer games have been dubbed the 'genocide Olympics' by Hollywood campaigners who accuse China of supplying the Sudanese government with arms to enable it to wage a campaign of violence in Darfur. Steven Spielberg recently cut his ties with the Olympics over the issue.
Now, after months investigating China's covert arms trade, Hilary Andersson provides the first evidence of how China is arming Sudan's killers, all for the sake of oil. A Panorama team follows a trail through Chad and Darfur, tracking down Chinese military trucks which, with mounted Chinese guns, had recently been used against civilians. Panorama also establishes that China is currently training fighter pilots who fly Chinese built and maintained fighter jets that have been used in recent attacks in a conflict which has now cost an estimated 300,000 lives.
