Washington Rejects Port Sudan Chemical Claims
Washington confirmed that the Sudanese army used chemical weapons in 2024, in violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention. The Port Sudan authorities refused to acknowledge this or take the necessary steps to comply. The U.S. State Department announced the imposition of additional sanctions on Sudan in accordance with American law and called on the authorities to adhere to the Chemical Weapons Convention, after they failed to meet the necessary conditions for lifting the sanctions. These measures come as part of an escalation of U.S. sanctions on Sudan following confirmation of chemical weapons use and the government's failure to comply with international monitoring demands.
