The UN Security Council decided to hold an emergency session at ten in the morning next Monday, to discuss the recent developments between Sudan and the UAE.
This decision came against the backdrop of Sudan’s permanent representative to the United Nations requesting a special meeting to discuss what he described as “the Emirati aggression against Sudan.”
In a speech to the President of the Security Council, Sudan’s representative Ambassador Al-Harith Idris condemned what he described as the “aggressive behavior of the UAE”, considering that the UAE’s support for the Sudanese Rapid Support Militia constitutes a “flagrant violation” of the UN Charter.
For its part, the UAE expressed concern about the escalation of tensions in Sudan and called for immediate measures to ease the situation and avoid the country sliding into levels of instability.
The UAE also appealed to the international community to strengthen the international humanitarian response and provide assistance to those in need in Sudan and neighboring countries.
These tensions come as violent clashes continue in various parts of Sudan between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), increasing civilian suffering and posing a challenge to peace and stability in the country.
