UN Pushes to Expand Sudan Arms Embargo It Doesn't Enforce
Original: In Sudan, the U.N. Fights to Expand an Arms Embargo That It Doesn’t Enforce
The United Nations is seeking to broaden the arms embargo on Sudan, even though the existing restrictions on the country are widely seen as poorly enforced. The debate comes as Sudan's civil war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces continues, with outside arms supplies fueling the fighting. Observers question the value of expanding measures that are not being implemented.
Why now: Sudan's ongoing civil war has renewed attention on the failure of international arms restrictions to curb weapons flows to the warring parties.
