In a letter addressed to UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, Sudan’s acting foreign minister said that UN mission’s performance in achieving was disappointing.

“[The] government of Sudan requested that the United Nations immediately terminate the UNITAMS mission. At the same time, we would like to assure you that the Government of Sudan is committed to engaging constructively with the Security Council and the Secretariat,” Sudan’s acting Foreign Minister Ali Sadeq, told the UN Security Council in the letter seen by the Reuters and dpa news agencies.

The UNITAMS mission began in Sudan in 2020 and employs more than 400 civilians.

Guterres’ spokesperson Stephane Dujarric confirmed that the letter had been received and circulated to the UN Security Council.
