Abdalla Hamdok, a former prime minister of Sudan, is urging the international community to maintain pressure on the opposing parties in that country’s civil war. According to Hamdok, the type of engagement that made it possible for foreigners to be evacuated could contribute to a long-lasting ceasefire. The Mo Ibrahim Governance weekend in Kenya in 2023 was when he spoke.
Hamdok, who founded the Ibrahim Foundation, responded to queries from Mo Ibrahim by saying that the world community should take a firm, coordinated stance to assist put an end to the needless armed conflict in Sudan.
The former prime minister said it is critical to assign the military well defined responsibilities and that they should keep out of politics.
In an October 2021 coup, Hamdok was removed, and he claims that the current government cannot be trusted.
U.N. Sudan ambassador Volker Perthes urged the opposing military factions to strictly abide with the established cease-fire this week. Although Burhan told the media he “would not sit down at the same table as the leader of the’rebellion’,” he claimed that Sudan’s military commander Gen. Abdel Fattah al Burhan and Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, the head of the Rapid Support Forces, appear to be “closer to negotiations” than they have been.
Their positions have been defended by both military factions. According to the military of Sudan, RSF personnel are not authorized to be stationed in some areas of the nation. Dagalo stated in a statement on Saturday that the RSF is still trying to provide passageways for both residents and non-residents of Sudan and that they are dedicated to a cease-fire.
However, people expressed their displeasure on social media about Dagalo’s Rapid Support Forces’ home invasions and thefts of cash, gold, and other valuables. Independent verification of the claims was not possible by VOA.
The fight between Sudan’s military and the nation’s paramilitary force, which is approaching its third week, has claimed the lives of over 500 people and injured more than 4,000, according to the United Nations.
