UN extends Darfur arms embargo, rejects broader Sudan sanctions
Original: UN extends Darfur arms embargo, blocks broader Sudan sanctions proposal
The UN Security Council has extended its arms embargo on Darfur but declined to adopt a wider sanctions proposal covering all of Sudan. The decision comes as Sudan's civil war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces continues to drive a humanitarian crisis and displacement. The split over broader measures reflects divisions among council members over how far sanctions should go amid stalled peace efforts.
Why now: Sudan's ongoing civil war and the Security Council's divided response keep the conflict and sanctions policy in focus.
