US Special Envoy for Sudan Tom Perillo announced a new round of negotiations between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, with the participation of representatives of the United States, Egypt, and the United Arab Emirates.
Negotiations begin on April 18, after the US special envoy for Sudan, Tom Perello, announced that the United States looks forward to the resumption of peace talks.
This comes as part of its ongoing efforts to resolve a conflict that has displaced millions of people and marked the world’s largest humanitarian crisis.
Perillo stressed that the talks should be inclusive and include all parties involved, including the UAE, Egypt, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) and the African Union.
In this context, Perillo noted the importance of using the current period before the start of talks to explore all possible angles towards success.
On the other hand, the assistant commander-in-chief of the Sudanese army, Lieutenant General Yasser al-Atta, ruled out negotiations or a truce with the RSF, which shows the complexities of the situation and the difficulty of reaching a quick settlement.
Fighting between the army and the RSF broke out in mid-April last year, escalating tensions that had been looking for a long time.
Saudi Arabia and the United States led talks in Jeddah last year to try but fail to reach a truce, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and triggering waves of violence in Sudan’s western Darfur region.
