Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis is in Berlin on Wednesday to participate in the third international conference on the crisis in Sudan<\/a>, as the conflict marks three years and is widely described as the world\u2019s most severe humanitarian emergency.<\/p>\n

The ministerial meeting, hosted by the German government, is co-organized by France, the United Kingdom, the United States, the European Union and the African Union. It also brings together representatives from the United Nations, the League of Arab States, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development and numerous international humanitarian organizations.<\/p>\n

Focus on Aid and Political Solutions<\/p>\n

The conference aims to tackle the escalating humanitarian crisis in Sudan by improving coordination of aid efforts, increasing financial commitments from donors and pushing for a ceasefire<\/a> to protect civilians.<\/p>\n

Building on previous meetings held in Paris in 2024 and London in 2025, the Berlin summit is considered more ambitious, as it introduces a stronger political dimension. For the first time, it seeks to incorporate organized Sudanese civil society groups into the peace process.<\/p>\n

On the humanitarian front, discussions are expected to address funding shortages and access challenges, with participating countries aiming to exceed previous aid pledges.<\/p>\n

Diplomatic Engagements and Key Talks<\/p>\n

At the political level, foreign ministers will engage with representatives from two major mediation frameworks: a \u201cQuad\u201d group involving the United States, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates, and a broader \u201cQuint\u201d framework including the United Nations, African Union, League of Arab States, Intergovernmental Authority on Development and the European Union.<\/p>\n

A notable development is the planned interaction between Sudanese political groups, civil society organizations and independent figures, raising hopes for broader participation in efforts to resolve the conflict.<\/p>\n

Greece\u2019s Position<\/p>\n

Greece has consistently highlighted the severity of the crisis through its role within the European Union, the UN Security Council and bilateral contacts.<\/p>\n

Speaking previously in Brussels, Gerapetritis described the situation in Sudan as an \u201cunprecedented humanitarian crisis,\u201d stressing the urgent need for immediate and decisive action to end hostilities and ensure compliance with international law.<\/p>\n

He has also warned of the risk of further population displacement, which could lead to increased migration pressures if the conflict continues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis is in Berlin on Wednesday to participate in the third international conference on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":61298,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[99],"tags":[112,23143,190,15697],"class_list":{"0":"post-61297","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-berlin","8":"tag-berlin","9":"tag-foreign-minister-george-gerapetritis","10":"tag-germany","11":"tag-sudan"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61297\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/61298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
