Cameron Hudson, a former U.S. State Department official, stated, &#8220;Britain, once the colonial power, has been completely absent from Sudan.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8755\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8755\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8755 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\" Western nations are under scrutiny for their relationships with the UAE\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-390x220.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed-450x253.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bin-zayed.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8755\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mohammed bin Zayed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Lammy&#8217;s visit to Chad was the first ever by a British Foreign Secretary.<\/p>\n<p>During the visit, he met with Chadian leader Mahamat D\u00e9by in the capital, N&#8217;Djamena, and announced an additional \u00a320 million in funding for Sudan, bringing total British aid to \u00a3226.5 million as of November.<\/p>\n<p>However, Lammy&#8217;s attempts to focus attention on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2023\/12\/28\/emirates-machinations-unraveling-a-menacing-role-in-sudans-crisis\/\">Sudan<\/a> opened the door to uncomfortable questions about the UAE, a key British ally.<\/p>\n<p>Upon his return to the UK, Lammy was questioned in Parliament by left-wing MP Zarah Sultana, who called on the government to end arms sales to the UAE until it is confirmed that they are no longer arming the RSF.<\/p>\n<p>Sultana presented a report on the &#8220;weapons and support&#8221; provided by the UAE to the RSF, noting that Abu Dhabi &#8220;is one of the largest purchasers of UK arms, with defense export licenses worth billions of dollars in recent years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to a report by Middle East Eye, this failure to directly address the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2025\/01\/23\/eu-parliament-urges-sanctions-on-sudan-crisis-perpetrators-including-uae-and-rsf\/\">UAE&#8217;<\/a>s role in Sudan is not new, either in Britain or the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Extensive reports have detailed the networks used by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2024\/04\/22\/uae-rebuts-sudans-accusations-denial-of-involvement-in-sudanese-conflict\/\">UAE<\/a> to support the RSF, which human rights groups and now the U.S. government say are committing acts of genocide.<\/p>\n<p>In December, before leaving office, White House official Brett McGurk stated that the UAE had promised to stop supplying the RSF\u2014a tacit acknowledgment that it had done so\u2014but the supply continued.<\/p>\n<p>When Lammy made his first official visit to the UAE in September, the UK briefing mentioned &#8220;cooperation in clean energy and artificial intelligence, and close coordination on regional security and humanitarian issues,&#8221; but not Sudan.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4067\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4067\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4067 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Commander-of-the-Rapid-Support-Forces-Hemeti-and-the-Emirati-President-Mohammed-bin-Zayed-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"Mohammed bin Zayed takes revenge on Sudan...
