Sudan Respects ICJ's Dismissal of Genocide Case Against UAE — Yet Insists Gulf Nation Isn't Cleared
"The dismissal of the lawsuit on this procedural ground cannot be legally construed as a denial of violations and does not constitute a ruling acquitting the UAE of involvement in the crime of genocide," the Sudanese Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The ICJ dismissed the case Monday, citing lack of its legal authority to proceed with the case, as the UAE had previously objected to part of the Genocide Convention that requires both sides to agree before the court can act.
Filing the case succeeded in exposing the UAE's alleged role in the war and ongoing support of the RSF with advanced weapons, the ministry emphasized.
"The Sudanese government will continue to pursue every available avenue to hold accountable those responsible for the grave crimes committed against the […] people of Sudan [...] perpetrated through the UAE's ongoing support for the rebel RSF militia," Sudan's Minister of Culture and Information Khalid Ali said on X.
