In @nytopinion.nytimes.com, O'Neill's Eric A. Friedman joins other experts to underscore that, as violence in El Fasher, Sudan, reaches catastrophic levels, the international community has yet to take decisive steps to halt these atrocities.

Read their new op-ed below:
In @nytopinion

“For institutions tied to the Emirates, choosing to act” or speak out about the genocide in Sudan “would have an economic cost,” write three experts in global human rights. “Yet the cost of silence, of continuing business as usual, is infinitely greater.”
Opinion | Sudan Is in Free Fall
The slaughter in Darfur could potentially be stopped, if those with leverage chose to act.
