Sudan’s war is a stark reminder that conflicts today are complicated, messy, and rarely local. Multiple actors, shifting alliances. It’s a lot to untangle but a rare opening could. Alan Boswell on what’s really happening in Foreign Affairs. foreignaffairs.com/sudan/sudans-w…


#IndiaAtUN Hon’ble MPs interacted with Richard Gowan and his team from Crisis Group. They had an engaging discussion on various aspects of the United Nations, including the current challenges and overall state of play. Poonamben Maadam PP Chaudhary Vivek Tankha @Captbrijesh @Sphangnon


This was a great discussion India at UN, NY.

I talk to Amélie Bottollier about United Nations cutting missions due to 💰 shortage. "In somewhere like South Sudan, where peacekeepers offer many civilians a little protection and there was nearly a new war this year, cutting back peacekeepers sends a very bad signal." arabnews.com/node/2618253/w…

It's been a privilege to lead UK at the UN 🇬🇧🇺🇳 for the last 5 years. Thank you for the friendship & collaboration across the UN in our shared commitment to multilateralism & the pursuit of the Charter’s promise: A world where rights triumph over force & hope triumphs over despair.





.Joost Hiltermann and @NatashaHallDCT discuss the U.S.-brokered agreement between Israel and Hamas—and consider what Washington must do to achieve “the ‘strong, durable and everlasting peace’ that the president says he wants.” foreignaffairs.com/israel/gaza-de…

The war in #Sudan has proven particularly difficult to resolve, namely due to the meddling of foreign powers. But joint efforts from the 'Quad' seek to change that. Colleagues Shewit Woldemichael, Alan Boswell and Yasmine Farouk ياسمين فاروق break down the ins and outs. crisisgroup.org/africa/sudan/c…

Will the #UNSC play a role in the #Gaza plan? "So if the Arabs and Europeans push the idea of a resolution together, and link it to offers of troops and financing for Gaza, it could happen," I tell POLITICOEurope. politico.eu/article/german…
