WorldSudan atrocities shadow UAE diplomat’s bid to lead the UN

Lana Nusseibeh, a senior Emirati diplomat, has emerged as a contender to become the next UN secretary-general and is drawing support despite allegations that the UAE has supplied weapons and other assistance to Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces. The paramilitary group has been accused of ethnic cleansing, mass killings and widespread sexual violence. The UAE denies backing the RSF, and Nusseibeh has defended her government.
