Prime Minister Mark Carney will travel to the United Arab Emirates next week, as both that country and Canada face questions over alleged links to actrocities in Sudan.

The UAE is said to be supporting the paramilitary Rapid Support Force in Sudan's civil war, while Ottawa is under the microscope over the reported presence of Canadian-made armoured vehicles in that same conflict.

The Rapid Support Force has carried out gruesome massacres and other atrocities including mass rapes, over the past two weeks in Sudan, while rights groups question Ottawa's friendly relations with the UAE.
