""This major humanitarian crisis in Africa must not be forgotten," said German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, emphasizing the need for international support as the war in Sudan continues to escalate."
""We want to achieve more than we did at the last conference in London that was a billion [US] dollars," Wadephul stated, highlighting the urgency of the situation and the need for increased funding."
""Despite tight budgetary constraints, Berlin must attempt to fill the funding gap left by massive cuts to US foreign aid carried out by the Trump administration," Wadephul noted, stressing the importance of continued support for Sudan."
The war in Sudan is now in its fourth year, with international attention diverted to other conflicts. Germany is hosting a conference to raise funds for those affected by the war. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul expressed hope to raise over $1 billion. He emphasized the importance of not forgetting the humanitarian crisis in Africa. Germany plans to contribute an additional 20 million euros to aid projects in Sudan, addressing funding gaps left by cuts to US foreign aid and its own budget constraints.
