Sudan’s highest-ranking military commander, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, has publicly criticized the latest peace proposals put forward by the United States, asserting that they disproportionately favor the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and their alleged backers, the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Al-Burhan argued that the US plan undermines Sudan’s national security by advocating for the dissolution of the country’s Armed Forces and other security agencies, effectively leaving rebel militias in control of their territories. He condemned the proposal as a direct threat to Sudan’s unity, labeling it unacceptable and divisive. The military leader also reaffirmed the Armed Forces’ commitment to reclaiming Darfur and significant portions of the Kordofan region, which have become the focal points of intense clashes between the warring factions. The conflict, which erupted in mid-April 2023, stems from a power struggle between al-Burhan and RSF commander General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, plunging the nation into a protracted and devastating internal war.
