The United Arab Emirates has canceled several meetings with UK officials, including London's Lord Mayor, following accusations from Sudan's UN representative that the UAE supported the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan. The cancellations were a response to the UK's failure to defend the UAE at the UN Security Council. Reports indicate that the Emiratis were displeased with the UK's inaction, leading to the cancellation of four ministerial meetings. The RSF, known for its genocidal history, has been criticized for committing atrocities in Sudan, posing a threat to 1.8 million people.
