The fourth session on the situation in Sudan was a session of working papers. The two working papers submitted by the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and China/Russia in the previous meeting, it was the West’s time to shine through the papers of Latvia and France. With four documents on the floor, debate has now shifted to sanctions, arms embargoes, and finding a way to resolve the conflict. Russia and China have opposed the economic sanctions already imposed on Sudan and their expansion. Moscow also clearly stated that any embargoes or sanctions affecting Russia will be met with a veto. Latvia proposed a lifting of sanctions to alleviate the suffering of the civilian population, but pushed for a more expansive and better-enforced arms embargo. France and the United Kingdom were pursuing policies in a similar spirit: Help civilians, de-escalate the conflict. Ultimately, Russia proposed to give some sort of amnesty to the leaders of the warring factions to provide them with an incentive to pursue peace. Latvia’s counterproposal was strategic ambiguity: Do not forgive them, but do not pursue charges or sanctions against them either. A decision will be made next time, on the 16th of April. Can the UNSC pass a meaningful resolution to push towards peace in Sudan?
