The Personal Envoy of the UN Secretary-General, Pekka Haavisto, affirmed that the United Nations is working to end the war in Sudan and achieve peace.
Haavisto noted that he has listened to a number of Sudanese parties as part of efforts to identify the most effective ways to resolve the crisis.
The UN spokesperson, Stéphane Dujarric, said that the envoy’s meeting with the commander of the Rapid Support Forces provided a constructive opportunity to exchange views and explore practical ways to de-escalate and ensure continued protection of civilians.
He added in a press briefing that all Sudanese parties the envoy met in Nairobi expressed their willingness to cooperate with the United Nations.
