Port Sudan –Sudanhorizon

The President of the Sudanese Liberal Democratic Party, Dr Mayada Siwar-Eddahb, has announced her party’s rejection of the recommendations submitted by the UN Fact-Finding Mission to the Human Rights Council in Geneva, stressing that Sudan’s national Sovereignty must be respected.
In a statement, a copy of which was received by the Sudanhorizon news website, Siwar Eddahab stressed, “We reaffirm the necessity of respecting Sudan’s sovereignty and reject any foreign interventions in its domestic affairs. We reject the recommendations submitted by the Fact-Finding Mission and the double standards it applies, serving the interests of the Rapid Support Militias’ project, supported by regional and international circles.”
She added that “the RSF militias should be looked at as rebel militias that committed war crimes, genocides, ethnic cleansing, and rape, crimes against humanity, forceful disappearance and sex enslavement. And the Sudanese Armed Forces must defend the homeland and defeat the aggressors.”
Dr Mayada has argued that “it could not be possible to put on equal footing the violations committed by the terrorist militias with the Armed Forces, the legal army of the country, and the guarantor of its security and stability.”
She added that although the body that issued those recommendations was not mandated to issue binding decisions, still the recommendations of the Fact-Finding Mission of the Human Rights Council would open the door wide for predictable steps that would undermine the country’s sovereignty and security.
She indicated that if the Human Rights Council endorsed these recommendations, they might have as consequences measures to be adopted later by the UN Security Council, spearheaded by the supporters of the terrorist militia, backed by regional and western circles that have been calling for military intervention in Sudan since the outbreak of the war, in attempts aimed to curb the role of the national forces, coupled with delay in the formation of a civilian government and interventions in the judicial procedures, and frustrating the implementation of legal action against the agents and traitors,”
She called for opposing any trend that seeks to issue unjust and excessive decisions and to publically and officially stand against them and to intensify efforts and revitalise all national mechanisms for rejecting the recommendations of the commission, boosting the efforts of the Sudan mission at the UN and other diplomatic missions, coordinating with brothers and friends for mobilising support and assistance in all international forums.”
