Description
The UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Sudan, Denise Brown speaking from Sudan urged Member States to focus on the forces driving the war, including the flow of weapons and the wider war economy.
She also referred to questions around the Darfur arms embargo and whether enough is being done to enforce it. Humanitarians are left “picking up the pieces,” she said, stressing that aid workers are not the solution to the conflict.
Ms. Brown – who serves as overall Resident Coordinator too – said UN agencies, international NGOs and Sudanese organizations remain on the ground across the country, doing what they can to help people survive.
