RSF forces in Sudan's civil war are preparing for mass genocide
economist.comUAE backed mercenary army , when you have Colombian ex military , Ukranian(?) , Libyan forces with the active collabaration of neigbouring countries like Kenya,Somalia and Chad - in the movt of weapons/fighters and looting of mineral resources. Calling it a 'civil' war is a misstatement. All conducted under the perview of the UAE which has been heavily lobbying the EU and US to turn a blind eye to its activities as long as it stays the course and fronts more in the 'Abraham Accords'.
> Ukranian(?)
Basically Ukraine had a lot of small "security" (mercenary) groups post 2014. In the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine war, those group were basically told "please go oppose Wagner in Africa", and some found themselves in Soudan (and other in Armenia). I'm not sure if now they're paid by local forces. I don't have any information post-war though, my friend left the comapny and came back in France since the war.
No, it's Africans killing Africans themselves. Most Emiratis don't give a crap what's happening around the world either. They have their own. Thousands of companies have their headquarters in Dubai like Halliburton etc. UAE doesn't manufacture weapons or sell them. There are many foreign weapons manufacturers based there. China, USA, Europe, Israel are probably some of the world's largest arms dealers and they distribute to everyone. The US sent almost $25 billion of weapons to Israel in the past 3 years. If stuff is passing through UAE ports, then that's another thing. And no one gives a crap about Sudan's gold either. UAE has had a huge gold market for a long time and some of the largest gold sellers are Indian companies based there.
The Sudan conflict affects us all. It’s an unbelievable tragedy.
The flip flopping list of allies and opponents is a tangible primer on the last couple of years in geopolitics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_Support_Forces
The videos that are coming out are straight up horrible, do not watch. Civilians casually being moved down like it is sport, with the killers laughing and joking about it. Child soldiers shooting anything that moves. ISIS-levels of depravity.
does UN can do anything about this????
The UN has been in the region for a long time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Mission_in_Suda...
And: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Mission_in_Sout...
But the scale of the conflict is beyond all comprehension. And capacity to make a difference outside of proxy funding by state actors is minimal.
"preparing for mass genocide"
is kind of not in the article or it's title.
Another wave of refugees incoming to Europe. Somehow we are morally and financially responsible of every failed society
Countries housing the most refugees:
Iran 3.5 million
Türkiye 2.9 million
Colombia 2.8 million
Germany 2.7 million
Uganda 1.8 million
Pakistan 1.6 million
Chad 1.3 million
Poland 1 million
Ethiopia 1 million
Bangladesh 1 million

The important difference here is that nearly all of those countries both border those where the conflicts are and are ethnically and culturally similar to the conflicted regions. This is not true for western Europe (which is where most of these migrants want to go) which neither borders any of the conflicted regions nor is (or, locally, was) culturally similar to them. The exception to this in the list you quoted is Poland which does have a border with a country at war - Ukraine.
If war breaks out in Finland there will be a swell of Finnish refugees entering Sweden and Norway but I do not foresee them flying halfway across the globe to request asylum in Afghanistan even if that country were to be flourishing then. Why, then, is the opposite seen as normal?
The claim was that "Somehow [Europe] are morally and financially responsible of every failed society".
Which is demonstrably false, since Europe has fewer refugees than African, South American or Middle Eastern countries, in absolute numbers and percentage of population and financial resources.
Your claim that "countries both border those where the conflicts are and are ethnically and culturally similar to the conflicted regions" is similarly coarse and clueless, like a Chinese person saying Spain and Finland are ethnically and culturally similar because both are Western.
You also seem to have forgotten to switch back to your sockpuppet account.
Which sockpuppet account would that be? Please point it out by name - you said it, now you prove it. An inquiring mind - and possibly more than one - wants to know.
My whole shtick here on this forum is that I just say what I think without worrying over whatever 'karma' hits I might get. Given that no sockpuppets are needed when you follow that approach I'm really curious to learn I seem to have some so, educate us.
Refugees per capita is a more interesting metric to look at though, it wouldn't change the sadness of it all but as a metric it's much more relevant than just total amounts.
