Irish Prime Minister Miche\u00e1l Martin called for accountability for perpetrators of war crimes in Sudan and for the mandate of the International Criminal Court to cover the entire country.<\/p>\n
Martin expressed deep concern over the escalating humanitarian crisis in Sudan, describing it as a grave catastrophe threatening millions of lives and the stability of the region.<\/p>\n
In his address to the UN General Assembly, Martin noted that the war in Sudan, ongoing for more than two years, has caused unimaginable suffering, killing over 150,000 people and displacing 12 million others.<\/p>\n
He strongly condemned the brutal sexual violence committed against women and children.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe world has failed Sudan,\u201d Martin said. \u201cIt is shameful that we have not given this devastating war the same attention and focus we devote to other global conflicts. A child in Sudan has the same value and the same right to a safe life and stable childhood as any other child in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
Martin called for an immediate ceasefire through negotiations, urgent humanitarian response, and a lasting peace in Sudan. He announced Ireland\u2019s full support for the efforts of the UN Secretary-General\u2019s personal envoy, Ramtane Lamamra.<\/p>\n
He urged the international community to assume its responsibilities toward the Sudanese crisis, warning that the continuation of the conflict threatens not only Sudan but also broader regional stability. \u201cThis war must end, and we must act now to save lives and restore hope to the people of Sudan,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
