He stressed that listening to the UAE representative was an insult to those victims, asserting that his rightful place was not in the council chamber, but alongside the militias in Darfur.<\/p>\n<p>This spirit of patriotism\u2014embodied by Harith\u2014is precisely what the state apparatus needs. Weak administration does not bring victory, nor do ambiguous or suspicious stances. One such suspicious act occurred last Tuesday, when the Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed the World Food Programme\u2019s country director, Laurent Bukera, and operations chief, Samantha Catrage, that they were persona non grata and must leave Sudan within 72 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Laurent and Samantha had reportedly celebrated the fall of El Fasher, and security agencies documented their behavior, submitting a report to the competent authorities, including the Foreign Ministry, which bears responsibility for national sovereignty. The ministry, therefore, decided to expel them for committing a grave breach that undermined Sudan\u2019s sovereignty and cast doubt on their organization\u2019s neutrality.<\/p>\n<p>As Foreign Minister Mohyeldin Salem was in Washington at the time, the task fell to Hussein Al-Amin, the ministry\u2019s undersecretary, who duly notified Laurent and Samantha of their expulsion. He also told the press that the decision stemmed from violations affecting the country\u2019s sovereignty and the WFP\u2019s neutrality, emphasizing that it was a sovereign decision made in full coordination with state institutions.<\/p>\n<p>Regrettably, this rightful decision\u2014aimed at defending national sovereignty against foreign interference\u2014did not please Prime Minister Kamal Idris. He quickly contacted the foreign minister and ordered the immediate dismissal of Undersecretary Hussein Al-Amin. The minister complied, calling the undersecretary and effectively telling him, \u201cStay home.\u201d And so, he left his office\u2014and has not returned since.<\/p>\n<p>That, indeed, is what happened. Laurent and Samantha rejoiced over the fall of El Fasher; the undersecretary expelled them in defense of his nation\u2019s dignity. But rather than being angered by Laurent and Samantha, the Prime Minister\u2019s fury was directed at the undersecretary himself\u2014whom he swiftly removed through a verbal order.<\/p>\n<p>By expelling Laurent and Samantha, the undersecretary and others stood firmly with their country, their people, and the brave souls on the frontlines who sacrifice blood and life in defense of land and honor. Yet, a troubling question remains:<br \/>\nFor whom did the Prime Minister grow angry when he punished his undersecretary\u2014was it for the UAE, or for its Janjaweed allies?<br \/>\nIt was certainly not for the homeland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Al-Tahir Satti Rejecting his speech, Sudan\u2019s representative to the United Nations, Harith Idris, questioned why the UAE envoy was allowed to speak\u2014as if the Emirates were a nation keen on peace, and not one stained with the blood of innocents in El Fasher and elsewhere.
