PRESS STATEMENT

 

THE MINISTER OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF MALAYSIA

H.E. DATO’ SERI UTAMA HAJI MOHAMAD BIN HAJI HASAN

 

ON THE CURRENT SITUATION IN SUDAN

 

Malaysia, along with the rest of the world, is watching in horror as the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) continue to inflict a massacre, and one of the world’s largest displacement and hunger crises, in Sudan. The sheer scale of brutality on display is deplorable, and, as shown by satellite images of blood covering the city of El Fasher, a literal bloodstain on all of humanity. It is absolutely unconscionable.

These senseless acts of extreme violence must end now. Malaysia joins our fellow members of the international community in demanding an immediate ceasefire, and for the RSF to open humanitarian corridors so that aid and supplies may be delivered to the people of El Fasher and all affected areas of the Darfur region.

The world cannot allow the continued revival of the genocide of Darfur. We must not allow the darkest chapters of history to repeat.
