The International Crisis Group (ICG) published on 9 January 2024 a commentary titled "Sudan's Calamitous Civil War: A Chance to Draw Back from the Abyss."
As Sudan's civil war expands to the east, the ICG argues the international community should take even greater efforts to end the conflict.
Comment: While this is the role of the ICG and all reasonable people would like to see an end to the mayhem in Sudan, neither the leadership of the Sudan Armed Forces nor the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces currently shows any willingness to accept in any meaningful way international mediation. The international effort should continue, but there is little reason to expect any progress at this time.
