The Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Ambassador Mohy-Eddin Salim, met on Monday with the International President of Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières-MSF), Dr Mohamed Javid Abdelmoneim, in the presence of representatives from MSF’s French, Belgian, Dutch, Swiss, and German sections operating in Sudan.
Dr Abdelmoneim expressed gratitude to the Government of Sudan for its cooperation and said the organization continues to operate in health, water, and sanitation services. He noted that despite an overall budget reduction for 2026, Sudan remains a top priority for MSF, with no cuts affecting funding for its operations in the country.
Ambassador Salim welcomed MSF’s humanitarian efforts and commended the work of its branches. He stressed that aid priorities should align with the actual needs of affected communities, particularly internally displaced persons in camps.
The Foreign Minister also emphasized the importance of coordination among MSF sections, citing the recent withdrawal of the Belgian and French branches from Um Baru, Karnoi, and Al-Tina without prior notice to Sudanese authorities. He urged MSF to engage directly with affected populations and produce field-based, factual reports to enhance the credibility of humanitarian reporting.
