Sudan has again rejected US allegations that the Sudanese Armed Forces used chemical weapons, dismissing the claims as unsubstantiated.
Addressing the UN Security Council, Sudan's Chargé d'Affaires at the Permanent Mission to the United Nations, Minister Plenipotentiary Ammar Mohamed Mahmoud, said the United States had failed to provide any evidence to support the allegations, either to Sudan's Embassy in Washington or to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in The Hague, where both countries serve on the Executive Council.
He added that the United States had made similar claims in the past that were later discredited. He cited the 1998 US missile strike on Sudan's Al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory, which Washington alleged was producing chemical weapons, saying the claim was later proven false and compensation was paid to the factory's owner. He also referred to the US case for the 2003 invasion of Iraq, noting that allegations of weapons of mass destruction presented before the Security Council were later found to be unfounded.
Sudan called on the Security Council to treat such allegations with responsibility and impartiality, urging members to base their deliberations on verified facts and credible evidence rather than unsubstantiated claims.
