The United Arab Emirates is funding and arming a genocide against non-Arabs in #Sudan. @NicholasCoghlan has it right: with the PM @MarkJCarney en route to the UAE next week, he has an opportunity and an obligation to publicly speak up and demand that they halt their death trade.
My hopes for Canadian PM @MarkJCarney 's visit to the UAE next week; he owes it to the victims of the genocide in #Darfur to speak up. And to say he has spoken up.

Merci pour ces mots, @MarionDepute41 . Puissent-ils être repris par vos ministres, et que cet appel à l’action résonne dans les parlements d’Europe et du monde entier. Il est grand temps de transformer notre silence, notre indifférence et notre apathie collectifs en une action
Les cris du peuple soudanais qu'on assassine ont résonné à @AssembleeNat. L'indifférence n'est plus acceptable, surtout après les horreurs qui ont suivi la chute El-Fasher. Chaque vie compte ! Négliger les morts d’Afrique, c’est nier notre humanité commune. @DeputesEnsemble
