African Union Urges Restraint after Ethiopia-Sudan Border Clashes

The African Union called for restraint Wednesday after clashes between Ethiopia and Sudan in a disputed border area. The tensions broke out after Sudan accused Ethiopia of executing seven of its troops, which Ethiopia blamed on a local militia.

The statement appealed for “complete refrain from any military action, whatever its origins,” and called for dialogue between Sudan and Ethiopia to resolve any dispute.

Sudan on Tuesday captured Jabal Kala al-Laban, an area on the border, after using heavy artillery a Sudanese military source told Reuters.

Shawgi Abdulazim, a Sudanese political analyst, said a broader conflict is unlikely because both countries are politically and economically fragile and a conflict could have disastrous effects.

He said if war happens, it will affect the humanitarian situation in both countries, resulting in an influx of refugees and displaced people. It would also further impact the situation in Djibouti, Somalia, and South Sudan amid an expected hunger crisis in the region.

Sudanese journalist Abdelmoniem Abuedries doubts the conflict will escalate.

“I don’t think this will lead to broader conflict, it will continue to be small clashes here and there,” he said. “Always these small clashes are happening at the beginning of the rainy season in this area, because the farmers start cultivating their farms.”

The clashes have taken place around the al-Fashaqa region, where land disputes between Sudanese and Ethiopian farmers have simmered for decades.

UN Investigator Calls For Access to Burundi to Probe Human Rights Violations

In his first oral report since beginning his job as the United Nations special rapporteur on Burundi’s human rights, Fortune Gaetan Zongo appealed to Burundian authorities to grant him access to their country to properly discharge his mandate to investigate alleged violations in that country.

Zongo noted with satisfaction that since the start of his mandate on April 1, Burundi’s return to the international scene had begun with the lifting of sanctions by the European Union, the United States and others. In return, he said Burundi has begun interacting with international and regional actors.

Additionally, he said Burundi has made some progress on human rights. He noted that Burundian President Evariste Ndayishimiye has pardoned more than 5,000 people in detention and freed some journalists and civil society representatives, as well. He spoke through an interpreter.

“But despite this major progress achieved since 2020, additional efforts are still necessary in the area of fighting impunity, in beefing up institutions, notably in the justice sector, the police and the army,” Zongo said. “In protecting the enjoyment of public freedoms and expanding the democratic space through effective participation of civil society and the media.”

Zongo said he intends to fulfill his mandate in an impartial manner and will examine documents from all sources regarding the human rights situation in Burundi.

However, he noted he only has access to partial information, achieved through secondary sources. That, he said, could tarnish the credibility and neutrality of his effort.

“From the height of this tribune, I would like to request of the Burundi authorities the possibility of interacting with them — visiting this brotherly country in order to better understand the realities on the ground, the country’s opportunities, as well as the challenges and priorities of that country.”

Burundi’s ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, Renovat Tabu, said Burundi has achieved major progress in implementing reforms and promoting good governance, social justice, and freedom of expression.

He said his country was aware of the crucial role played by the council in reinforcing, promoting and protecting human rights across the world. But he added that Burundi would not accept any mechanism or political attempts to interfere with the domestic affairs of sovereign states.

The comments effectively shut the door on Zongo visiting Burundi – at least for the time being.

Djibouti: New Support to Protect Poor and Vulnerable Communities and Strengthen resilience to future shocks [EN/AR]

The World Bank on June 27 approved an International Development Association (IDA) grant of $30 million to protect Djibouti’s poor and vulnerable communities and to increase resilience to economic shocks.

The Social Protection Emergency Crisis Response Project will provide safety net transfers to households adversely affected by the multiple crises facing the country and strengthen social protection and community resilience mechanisms to respond to future crises.

“Crises often disproportionately impact the most vulnerable people, such as women and children,” said Boubacar-Sid Barry, World Bank Resident Representative in Djibouti. “The new operation supports Djibouti in its efforts to mitigate the repercussions of the war in Ukraine and build a more adaptive social protection system that is vital for vulnerable populations.”

The global impact of the war in Ukraine and the severe drought in Djibouti has caused price increases that disproportionally affect the poorest segments of the population and the livelihoods of thousands of households. It is estimated that about 68,000 households need urgent emergency relief support in rural and urban areas. The project aims to provide emergency safety net transfers to at least 15,000 households and to 2,200 students from rural areas who are currently attending university away from home and cannot afford their upkeep.

“This project will build on the achievements of the Djibouti Integrated Cash Transfers and Human Capital Project which supports the access to the safety net system and quality basic services by the poor communities and encourages households to adopt behaviors that improve human capital outcomes,” said Alex Kamurase, World Bank Task Team Leader for the project. “It aims to expand coverage horizontally—which means covering more people with social protection systems—while increasing households’ resilience to future shocks.”

The project fully supports Djibouti’s ambitious strategy to build a social protection system that integrates different forms of social assistance, including the scaling up of a poverty-targeted cash transfer program, to effectively respond to and facilitate recovery from concomitant crises. It will also finance activities to help communities address emergency and socio- economic challenges at the local level and support institutional capacity building to enhance links between social protection programs and national crises response.

The World Bank in Djibouti

The World Bank’s portfolio in Djibouti consists of 18 projects, worth a total US$433.5 million in IDA financing. The portfolio focuses on education, health, social safety nets, energy, rural and urban development, modernizing public administration, digital development, strengthening governance and regional infrastructure, and on private sector development, with an emphasis on women and youth.
