‘END SUDAN WAR BY BLOCKING EMIRATI WEAPONS!’

Today marks two years of Sudan’s devastating war. In this clip, African Stream’s CEO explains to the TRT news channel how the proxy conflict can be brought to an end. The so-called international community needs to pressure the United Arab Emirates - the main supplier of weapons to the genocidal Rapid Support Forces paramilitary, which has also been receiving funds and logistical support from Abu Dhabi. The biggest hindrance to that is the US, for whom the UAE is a vital ally in the Middle East.

Two years of brutal fighting have torn Sudan apart. Half the population is facing acute hunger. Millions are displaced, either internally or in camps across the border. The destruction of hospitals and the wider health system has not only aggravated the humanitarian catastrophe but also made accurate reporting on the number of people killed and injured next to impossible. However, by any reasonable estimate, tens if not hundreds of thousands have died.
