United Nations extends sanctions against armed groups in Central African Republic

The United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution to extend sanctions against armed groups and individuals in the Central African Republic (CAR) until 31 July 2027. The measures include asset freezes, travel bans, and restrictions on weapon supplies to these groups. While the Council recognized progress in democratic governance and security in Bangui, they emphasized ongoing threats from armed groups and cross-border arms networks. French Ambassador Jérôme Bonnafont noted the fragile security situation and the UN's role in supporting the CAR. The CAR’s ambassador, Marius Aristide Hoja Nzessioué, raised concerns about the persistence of weapons despite sanctions, questioning the funding and networks enabling these groups and urging strict compliance with the sanctions.
