On Sudan, in a statement released today, the Quintet, which is made up of the African Union, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, otherwise known as IGAD, the League of Arab States, the European Union and the United Nations, they all expressed grave concern at the continued escalation of the conflict in the Sudan and called for the immediate halting of any further military escalation. Turning to the situation on the ground in Sudan, which continues to be horrific, and we continue to be deeply alarmed by the escalating attacks that we are seeing in the country, where aerial strikes are placing civilians at grave risk and directly hitting humanitarian and public infrastructure. As I said, this is an organization sometimes of precedents, and one of the precedents is that every year, every Member State, on what they tell us is their national day, just like they tell us who the members of Government are, they get a letter, and it's the same worded letter.
