Original: RE: https:// flipboard.com/@taz_de/politik- 7q8h8pgaz/-/a-6c03zolPQo2detKqy8v_ag%3Aa%3A2741305549-%2F0 "am Samstag läuft

The UN arms embargo on Darfur is due to expire on Saturday and would need to be renewed by the UN Security Council. German-language commentary notes the stakes: without renewal, weapons could flow more freely to the Rapid Support Forces and other armed groups fueling Sudan's war. Discussion links the embargo's fate to regional actors including the United Arab Emirates, as well as Chad, Libya and Colombia mercenaries, amid warnings that letting it lapse would worsen the conflict.

Why now: The embargo's expiry deadline falls this Saturday, prompting urgent debate about whether the Security Council will renew it.
