The declaration added that “the United Arab Emirates confirms that it does not provide weapons or military support to any of the parties at war in Sudan, and directly informed the United Nations, and this was reflected in the last report of the United Nations Security Council experts on the Sudan sanctions system, which has made no provision against water, and provided any support to Senan.
The declaration continued, explaining that “the highlight system mentioned in the report is a system manufactured outside the Emirates and has been available on the international market for almost a decade, and the affirmation that one country has bought or transferred this system is illogical.”
