Condemning attacks on civilians in Sudan and calling for an end to external support to the warring parties and for efforts to promote a negotiated settlement of the war.
Summary
This resolution strongly condemns the ongoing attacks on civilians in Sudan, specifically highlighting the genocidal campaign by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) against non-Arab communities in Darfur and the war crimes committed by both the RSF and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). It recognizes the immense humanitarian crisis, with millions displaced and hundreds of thousands dead, and calls on the warring parties to uphold international law by protecting civilians and ensuring unfettered access for humanitarian aid workers.
Furthermore, the resolution demands that external actors immediately cease all material support to both the SAF and RSF, as such support prolongs the conflict and exacerbates human suffering. It specifically calls on the U.S. administration to take resolute action to end this external support, negotiate a peaceful resolution to the civil war, and work towards restoring civilian-led democratic governance in Sudan. Finally, the resolution urges the international community to prioritize efforts to end the war, assist in post-conflict reconstruction, and establish robust transitional justice mechanisms to ensure accountability for human rights abuses.
