SUDAN: TENTATIVE CEASEFIRE AND CONFLICT DE-ESCALATION UNLIKEY TO BRING LASTING PEACE

   Wed, 24 May 2023

After weeks of intense fighting between the Sudanese military and the country’s resilient paramilitary force, a temporary ceasefire has been established, providing a brief respite for aid delivery. However, the sustainability of the truce remains in question, as previous ceasefires have faltered due to violations from both sides. With a lack of tangible commitments to achieving long-term peace and a zero-sum approach taken by the warring factions, the resolution of the Sudan conflict remains challenging. The ongoing turmoil poses security risks and significant economic implications for Sudan.
