The government of Ghana has urged regional and international actors to help end any form of support that fuels the ongoing armed conflict in Sudan and to fully comply with the United Nations arms embargo on Darfur.
In a statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on November 3, 2025, the government expressed deep concern over the devastating effects of the war between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces.
The conflict, it said, has led to widespread loss of lives, displacement of civilians, and a worsening humanitarian crisis.
According to the Ministry, millions of Sudanese have been left destitute and at risk of starvation, while regional security and efforts toward a peaceful transition have been seriously undermined.
“Ghana stands in solidarity with the people of Sudan and reiterates its unwavering support for peace, stability and democratic governance across the African continent,” the statement said.
The government noted that there is no military solution to the crisis and outlined a number of urgent steps for resolving the conflict.
It called for an immediate and unconditional cessation of hostilities across Sudan and the establishment of safe humanitarian corridors for the rapid and unhindered delivery of aid to affected areas.
The Ministry also urged full respect for international humanitarian law, including the protection of civilians, medical personnel and humanitarian workers.
Ghana further appealed to the warring parties to return to the negotiating table and work toward a civilian-led transitional government.
It also called on regional and international actors to refrain from any action that prolongs the conflict and to comply fully with the UN arms embargo on Darfur.
“The Government of Ghana remains committed to supporting all efforts to resolve the conflict and promote long-term peace in Sudan,” the statement added.
“We urge the African Union and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development to step up their diplomatic and mediation efforts to help achieve a peaceful resolution.”
The conflict in Sudan has become one of Africa’s most severe humanitarian crises in recent years, with millions displaced, facing hunger and living under the constant threat of violence.
