Sudan’s Prime Minister Kamil Idris reaffirmed his government’s commitment to a peace roadmap at the United Nations General Assembly. The plan, crafted with national forces and civil groups, calls for a cease‑fire, the withdrawal of the Rapid Support Forces from occupied areas, and the immediate lifting of the siege on El Fasher. Idris urged the international community to enforce Security Council Resolution 2736, adopted more than a year ago, warning that continued inaction would bring catastrophic human consequences.
He highlighted the dire humanitarian situation, noting that “children are dying, women are dying, the elderly are dying because of starvation, and the international community is silent.” Since the conflict erupted in April 2023, at least 40,000 people have been killed and roughly 12 million displaced, according to the United Nations. Both Sudan’s military and the Rapid Support Forces have been accused of atrocities, while millions of civilians face famine and lack basic services.
Idris also condemned international sanctions on Sudan as politically motivated, emphasizing the urgent need for a peaceful resolution. He stressed that implementing the peace roadmap and enforcing Resolution 2736 are essential steps to mitigate the humanitarian crisis and promote regional stability. As the conflict shows no sign of abating, the world watches Sudan’s struggle for peace and recovery, and the international community faces mounting pressure to act decisively.
