🇸🇩❌🇸🇩 The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) said it is open to ceasefire negotiations with the Sudanese army (SAF), but a ceasefire remains unlikely due to both sides’ maximalist demands and continued external meddling.
The RSF is calling for a ceasefire in an attempt to gain domestic and international legitimacy while delegitimizing the SAF
The SAF’s recent offensive is likely not a major factor in the RSF’s calculus given the RSF’s previous calls for ceasefires.
The RSF and SAF have reiterated their maximalist demands for a ceasefire in recent months, both of which are nonstarters.
Foreign sponsors, including Iran, Russia, and the United Arab Emirates continue to fuel the fighting in pursuit of their own interests and hinder the UN’s ability to pressure both sides to end the fighting.
