An unidentified speaker standing at an unspecified border urged the international community to act to end the conflict in Sudan, saying the fighting has lasted "over 1,000 days," has caused "murder" and the displacement of millions, and that people are crossing the border seeking refuge.
Unidentified Speaker, standing at a border, urged the international community on Saturday to act to end the conflict in Sudan, which the speaker said has been under way for "over 1,000 days." "I'm standing at this border because it marks the line, between life and death for thousands of people," the speaker said.
The speaker said the violence has produced "immense suffering, abuse, murder, and displacement of millions of people," and described refugees arriving at the border to seek safety. "They're coming across the border in order to seek a refuge," the speaker said, adding that the accounts of atrocities were "truly, truly painful" and "shameful."
The address called on the global community to take action: "I call upon the world to really act to bring this conflict to an end. This should not be allowed to continue," the speaker said. The speaker did not specify particular policy steps, agencies, aid mechanisms, or which international institutions should lead a response.
No formal motion, vote, or policy decision was announced during the remarks; the remarks were an appeal for action and for international attention. The speaker framed the situation as an immediate humanitarian emergency and urged outside actors to intervene to halt violence and protect civilians.
The speech provided no detailed breakdown of casualty figures, specific refugee counts at the border, or requests for particular kinds of aid. The speaker used broad estimates: "over 1,000 days" for the conflict's duration and "millions" for displaced people. Those figures were presented as characterizations by the speaker and were not accompanied by named reports or citations in the remarks.
