OPINION: In a recent UN Security Council (UNSC) meeting held at end of 2024, a draft resolution aimed at strengthening measures to protect civilians and increase humanitarian aid access in Sudan was vetoed by the Russian Federation. The Draft Resolution, submitted by Sierra Leone and the United Kingdom, received support from 14 members but was ultimately blocked by Russia. The resolution sought to condemn the ongoing assaults by the Rapid Support Forces in various regions of Sudan and demanded an immediate halt to attacks on civilians. It also called for the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces to honor their commitments to protect civilians and engage in dialogue to de-escalate the conflict. The views discussed at the UN Security Council (UNSC) meeting highlighted a critical issue about the fate of African nations which is often decided by non-African states... #HumanitarianAid #Resolution #Russia #SierraLeone #UK #UNSC #USA
