Foreign Affairs published on 1 May 2014 an eclectic piece titled "Out for Gold and Blood in Sudan" by Jerome Tubiana, analyst for Sudan and South Sudan. The article offers especially useful information on the Sudan government sponsored Haras-al-Hodud or border guard in Darfur. Concerning Darfur, Tubiana concludes that "it would be reductive to simply blame the government's militia strategy. There is plenty of blame to go around. The government, the rebels, and all the other players need to work together to stop the violence in all Sudan's peripheries."
Tubiana also gave an interview titled "Soudan du Sud" in French to Channel Africa dated 25 April 2014 on the difficulties of the South Sudan peace process and the consequences of the war on South Sudan.
