The incoming Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee has blasted the Biden Admnin for waiting until just 13 days before their term ends to declare atrocities in Sudan’s war as genocide.

This week, the United States accused the RSF militia in Sudan’s brutal civil conflict of committing genocide. It’s the second time in two decades that genocide has been declared in the northeast African nation,

On January 7th Antony Blinken, America’s secretary of state, said that the Rapid Support Forces ( RSF ), a brutal paramilitary force fighting the SAF for control of Sudan, had committed genocide in the western region of Darfur.

Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces has used systematic murder and sexual violence in its war in Sudan, the U.S. government says as it sanctions RSF’s chief, Hemedti.

A force fighting Sudan’s army in a brutal civil war committed massacres and rape that amount to genocide, the Secretary of State said, two decades after a finding of genocide in the same region.
