The Rift Valley Institute published in January/February a briefing paper titled "What Next for the Juba Peace Agreement? Evolving Political and Security Dynamics in Darfur."
The paper focuses on the future of the Juba Peace Agreement and the evolving political and security dynamics in Darfur. Implementation of the agreement has been complicated by the actions of Sudan Revolutionary Front leaders before, during and after the 25 October 2021 coup. Two key Darfuri signatories--the Sudan Liberation Army-Minni Minnawi (SLA-MM) and the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM)--benefitted from the agreement and supported the coup. Since then, JEM and its leaders have stayed close to the military, while SLA-MM has grown somewhat disenchanted.
