Why EU sanctions on Sudan's gold trade fall short

Original: Why the EU's sanctions on Sudan's gold trade are fundamentally flawed

Commentary is questioning the European Union's sanctions targeting Sudan's gold trade, arguing the measures are fundamentally flawed. Critics say the restrictions fail to address how gold is smuggled out of the war-torn country and how revenues reach armed factions, while risking harm to ordinary Sudanese instead of cutting off the financing that sustains the fighting.

Why now: The EU's new sanctions on Sudan's gold sector are drawing scrutiny as the war in Sudan continues and questions grow over whether the measures will actually work.
