Minnawi signed a treaty, known as the Darfur Peace Agreement, with the Khartoum government in May Nevertheless, in July , fighting broke out around the North Darfur town of Korma, resulting in the deaths of at least 80 people.[2] In the same year, Minnawi was appointed the top Sudanese official in the Darfur region, as chairman of the Transitional Darfur Regional Authority, and was technically the fourth ranking member of the Presidency, as Senior Assistant to the President of the Republic.

On September 14, , in defiance of the central government's opposition, Minnawi supported the new UN peacekeeping force detailed in UNSC Resolution , which was designed to protect the Sudanese people.[3] Minnawi opposed the Sudan government's genocidal agenda, which was exercised by Omar al-Bashir against the Zaghawa people and other civilians, alleged crimes for which Bashir was later indicted by the International Criminal Court (ICC).[4]

In December , after repeated complaints of non-compliance by the National Congress Party with the peace accords, the Sudan Liberation Movement under Minnawi withdrew from the Darfur Peace Agreement.[5] Minnawi resigned as Senior Assistant to the President of Sudan and as Chairperson of the Transitional Darfur Regional Authority,[6] to ally his faction, SLM/MM, with the other resistance defense forces in Darfur, including Abdul Wahid's faction the SLM/AW, in resisting attacks by the Sudanese Armed Forces, and its militias, on citizens in rebel-held areas.

In , SLM/MM joined the Sudan Revolutionary Front (SRF) opposed to the Khartoum Government.[7]

In May , Minni Minnawi was appointed governor of the Darfur Regional Government after signing the Juba Peace Agreement the previous year. He was inaugurated on 10 August.[8]
