Sudan’s Peace Deal On The Horizon After UN Security Council Meeting

Sudan has presented a peace accord to the United Nations Security Council outlining the procedures needed to achieve long-term peace in Sudan.

This is despite limitations in humanitarian financing by the United States and its allies, which require an agreement between Sudan’s army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

At a time when Sudan’s army has increased attacks in West Kordofan, targeting the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), the PM proposed a peace plan to the UN Security Council, which includes the United States, implying Sudanese unity.

While addressing the Security Council, Prime Minister Dr Kamil El-Tayeb Idris emphasized that the goal of the peace plan was not military victory, but rather an end to Sudan’s lengthy cycle of instability.

In the peace plan, the PM identified several initiatives that would assure Sudan’s peace.

Dr. Idris proposed an immediate ceasefire, with the United Nations, the African Union, and the League of Arab States overseeing its implementation.

The Prime Minister also asked for the evacuation of RSF combatants and their eventual disarming.

During the retreat, the RSF militia would be organized into agreed-upon camps overseen by UN, African, and Arab actors.

In addition, PM Idris suggested it was necessary to facilitate the safe return of internally displaced persons (IDPs) to their original homes.

He insists that it should be along with the voluntary return of refugees from neighbouring countries and the unrestricted flow of assistance to conflict-disturbed areas.

Moreover, the plan included the reintegration of RSF fighters into Sudanese society. However, the PM clarified that those reintegrated would be fighters not implicated in war crimes.

Dr. Idris went on to suggest economic rebuilding initiatives in Darfur and Kordofan, which would provide Sudanese economic security and stability.

Finally, the Prime Minister suggested that once calm had been restored, free and fair elections be held nationwide.

Following the discussion with the UN Security Council, the Prime Minister praised the proposal as “realistic, doable, and enforceable.”

Despite diplomatic attempts, Sudan’s civil conflict is described by the United Nations as the world’s largest displacement disaster.

According to the UN, over 9.5 million people are internally displaced in Sudan, with another 4.3 million fleeing to neighboring countries.

Meanwhile, more than half of the population (30.4 million) relies on humanitarian aid to survive.
