Mo Ibrahim: 'Sudan war ignored due to skin colour of its victims' - BBC Africa
The world is ignoring the war in Sudan because of the skin colour of its people, according to British-Sudanese billionaire Mo Ibrahim. Speaking to the BBC’s Akisa Wandera, Mr Ibrahim strongly criticised the international community for failing to end the conflict, blaming external actors for interfering and describing the UN Security Council’s system of veto ‘stupid’. Over 150,000 people have died and over four million have fled during the fighting between government forces and the RSF militia since 2023.
