Sudan GA Policy Statement

The Republic of Sudan joined the United Nations in 1956 and has actively participated in collaborating with the other nations of the U.N. to reach solutions that are fair and beneficial for all. While not every nation has approved of some of our past actions, we have always had the interests of our people at heart. We have done, and continue to do, everything in our power to make the world a better place both at home and abroad. We have taken great strides forward to institute democracy, we have collaborated and assisted the south with their goal of independence, and we have been a strong supporter in the fight against terror. We therefore find it most unjust that the U.N. has allowed political motivation against President Bashir to determine The Hague’s decisions regarding our great leader. We aspire to show you the true state of our nation, un-distorted by political agendas, to show all the members of the international community that we are worthy of your approval, continued relations, and support.

The Republic of Sudan is concerned with addressing the definition, regulation, and use of private military contractors through a resolution oriented towards the nations where private military contractors have the most significant and essential presence. Sudan has faced decades of militant rebels since it joined the U. N. in 1956, and private military contractors play a key role in our national security. The regulation of private military contractors is vital, but it is equally critical not to cripple their effectiveness in assuring peace. We are anxious to assist the U. N. in creating a new set of regulations to better guide such professional military contractors. We look forward to working with the various delegations on this issue to make sure that we reach a solution that is fair and acceptable to all.

The Republic of Sudan was among nations the first to ratify the UN counter-terrorism act and continues to fight terrorism in all forms. Sudan has experienced, and continues to face, the harmful effects of terrorism, including actions perpetrated by Al Qaeda against our country, government, and people. The Republic of Sudan offers this definition of terrorism: intending to provoke a state of terror within a specific body or organization through the use of death, bodily harm, hostage taking, and other actions defined previously by the United Nations. The Republic of Sudan recognizes the imperative need to find a common definition of terrorism, ratified by all nations, to effectively combat and prevent terrorism through universal international cooperation. The Republic of Sudan is eager to collaborate with the other member states of the U.N. to successfully define, enact, deter, and combat acts of terrorism in the nations most severely and continuously affected, and throughout the world.

The Republic of Sudan is eager to work with the United Nations to develop a protocol for post-revolutionary stabilization of nations. Sudan keenly understands the need for a post revolution protocol, as we have experienced, and continue to experience, violent insurgents who seek to destabilize Sudan. As a nation that fully understands the need for post revolutionary stabilization, we strongly support a protocol that facilitates peace agreements between parties, minimizes debts incurred by governments, and prevents foreign military intervention unless the nation requests support. We look forward to working with the various delegations on post-revolutionary nation stabilization to make sure that we reach a solution that is fair and acceptable to all parties.

The Republic of Sudan recognizes the need to ensure the economic growth and the stabilization of the European Union. Sudan has gained useful insights regarding economic difficulties and the impacts of currencies as well as positive strategies such as the use of natural resources and the reduction and forgiveness of national debt to fuel growth. With these crucial insights, Sudan has succeeded in reaching a rapid economic growth rate of seventeenth in the world. Based on the knowledge we have accumulated, Sudan finds it essential for EU policy to be energy oriented though investment in low cost energy development and production in foreign countries, and be willing to reduce and forgive the debts of nations who’s economic growth would be slowed by a large national debt. This low cost energy and debt reduction is essential to to fuel EU growth and stabilization. We look forward to collaborating with the other member of the U.N. to reach a policy that encourages economic growth, and therefore, stability.

The Republic of Sudan is eager to collaborate with all delegations of the U.N. to create policies that are fair and benefit all. We realize that not all nations have supported some of Sudan’s actions in the past, but Sudan has taken great strides forward and has continued to strive to create a better world. We have repeatedly shown our desire to improve the live of the citizens of the world through our diplomatic efforts and support for South Sudan, through our steps to implement a more effective democracy, and through our strong support in the fight against terror. We ask that the international community recognize and validate Sudan’s efforts to improve the world we live in, and look to Sudan’s promising future rather than the distorted past. The Republic of Sudan looks forward to working with the member states of the U.N. and the international community to continue to improve our world through strengthening the ties among our nations.
