The United Arab Emirates has welcomed the announcement by the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump designating the Muslim Brotherhood in Sudan as a terrorist organization.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) affirmed that the U.S. measure reflects the sustained and systematic efforts undertaken by the administration of President Trump to halt excessive violence against civilians and the destabilizing activities carried out by the Muslim Brotherhood in Sudan that aim to undermine efforts to resolve the conflict in the country.

Furthermore, the Ministry emphasized that this step constitutes a pivotal measure within the U.S. broader efforts to deprive the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood of the resources that enable it to engage in, support, or justify acts of extremism, hatred, and terrorism.

The Ministry reaffirmed the UAE’s support for all international efforts aimed at combating extremism and terrorism, and promoting regional and international security and stability.
