The International Crisis Group published on 21 January 2025 an analysis titled "Sudan's Calamitous War: Finding a Path Toward Peace."
This analysis looks at the role of outside countries in ending the catastrophe in Sudan. Outside actors working on a ceasefire may need to think in terms of a post-war government that makes difficult compromises on national and military leadership, as well as decentralized authority, while preserving space for civilian party representation.
