Norwegian Refugee Council leader warns Europe about neglecting Sudan

Nov 25, 2024

Khartoum [Sudan], November 25: The humanitarian crisis in Sudan is worse than Ukraine, Gaza and Somalia - combined, the head of the Norwegian Refugee Council charged.
"There are 24 million lives at stake here in Sudan," noted Jan Egeland, NRC's secretary general, in an interview following a trip he made to western Darfur and other areas. "We're looking at a relentless countdown to famine and despair and collapse for an entire civilization." Conflicts such as those in Ukraine and the Middle East, he asserted, should not distract from the suffering of the people in Sudan.
"If we all agree that human life is as equally valuable wherever you are in the world, then Sudan should be on top of our list of concerns now."
Egeland witnessed the consequences of the conflict, which has been ongoing for almost 600 days. He said he saw in many neighbourhoods "the very clear signs of a horrific war. And house after house, neighbourhood after neighbourhood, burnt, destroyed, and looted."
