Resolution text
The European Green Party is deeply concerned about the humanitarian crisis in
Sudan. Civilians are facing brutal violence, displacement and the destruction of
natural resources. We stand in solidarity with the civilian victims and call for
immediate coordinated international action to stop the violence and address the
crisis’s root causes.
The genocide in Darfur is among the worst humanitarian catastrophes of the 21st
century. Nearly two decades later, the region is again ensnared in armed
conflict with warring parties committing war crimes, crimes against humanity and
violations of international humanitarian law.
Since April 2023, the conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the
Rapid Support Forces (RSF), has escalated into one of the world’s biggest
humanitarian crises, with thousands murdered and over 13 million displaced.
Twenty-five million people face severe hunger and the collapse of state
structures. The RSF’s assault on El Fasher on 26 October 2025 resulted in mass
killings, ethnic violence, systematic sexual violence, destruction of health
facilities and the killing of hundreds of patients inside the city’s maternity
hospital.
United Nations investigations confirm that RSF and SAF forces have committed war
crimes, crimes against humanity, including extrajudicial killings, torture, the
systematic use of sexual violence as a weapon of war, with girls, women, and
children facing rape, abduction, forced marriage, sexual slavery, and severe
stigma, starvation as a method of warfare, widespread destruction of civilian
infrastructure, and obstruction of humanitarian aid.
Environmental degradation and climate stress—including desertification, land
degradation, and gold mining controlled by armed groups—are exacerbating the
conflict.
The crisis demands urgent action from the EU and national governments. This
action must be in collaboration with Sudanese civil society, including
journalists, scholars, human rights defenders, women-led resistance committees
and diaspora organisations.
As European Greens, we:
Condemn the atrocities committed by the RSF in Darfur, El Fasher, El
Geneina, El Obeid and other areas, including mass killings, ethnic
cleansing, systematic rape, sexual violence as a war tool, torture,
enforced disappearances, destruction of homes and attacks on humanitarian
facilities
Condemn SAF violations, including indiscriminate aerial bombardments,
killings, torture in detention and obstruction of aid
Call for an immediate, nationwide ceasefire and an end to indiscriminate
attacks, sieges, starvation tactics, and sexual violence, as a necessary
precondition for any humanitarian intervention and political dialogue
Call for urgent, unrestricted, and safe humanitarian access through all
possible routes
Call on the EU and national governments to urgently increase funding for
international organisations such as the United Nations Population Fund and
local humanitarian responders, reversing recent cuts
Coordinate with the African Union and the United Nations to establish and
support a unified diplomatic track to overcome fragmented mediation

arms, ammunition, drones and equipment to the RSF, SAF or affiliated armed
groups

humanitarian action, and peacebuilding and call for direct funding to
women’s organisations, youth committees, local responders, independent
journalists, and human rights defenders
