AS DELIVERED
Thank you, Mr. President. The United States thanks fellow Council Members for their constructive engagement to renew the Sudan sanctions measures and extend the Panel of Experts mandate.
We welcome the alignment of the Panel of Experts and sanctions renewal timelines, which ensures a more cohesive and efficient approach to addressing the crisis in Sudan.
Colleagues, the situation in Darfur remains dire, with widespread violence, severe humanitarian challenges, and mass displacement, all repeatedly underscored in the Panel’s reporting.
This adoption sends the clear message the international community remains focused on stemming the flow of arms and promoting accountability for those who perpetuate violence and instability in Darfur.
The United States remains committed to the Sudanese people and will continue to work with Council members, regional actors, and key stakeholders to protect civilians, enable humanitarian access, and support a path toward peace and reconciliation in Sudan.
And with that I thank you, Mr. President.
