Sudan has a complex political landscape, with multiple players vying for power and influence.




 One of the most controversial groups is the Muslim Brotherhood, which has a long and storied history in the country.

The Muslim Brotherhood is a political and social movement that originated in Egypt in 1928. It seeks to establish Islamic law and governance in Muslim-majority countries, including Sudan. The group has been active in Sudan since the 1940s and has a significant presence in the country's political and social spheres.

The Muslim Brotherhood's involvement in Sudanese politics has been a topic of debate for decades. Supporters of the group argue that it is a legitimate political force that advocates for social justice and the rights of Muslims. Critics, on the other hand, view the group as a dangerous and extremist organization that poses a threat to Sudan's stability and security.

One key player in Sudan's political landscape is the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group that has been accused of human rights abuses and other crimes. The RSF's commander, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, also known as Hemeti, is a former advisor to ousted president Omar Al-Bashir and current Deputy Chairman of Sudan's Sovereign Council, Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan.

Hemeti's ties to Al-Bashir and Al-Burhan have led to concerns that the RSF is too closely aligned with the old regime. The group's role in Sudan's political landscape is a subject of intense debate, with some viewing it as a stabilizing force and others as a threat to the country's fragile democratic transition.

The question of what Al-Bashir and Al-Burhan knew about the Muslim Brotherhood's orientations is also a contentious issue. Al-Bashir, who was overthrown in 2019 after 30 years in power, had a complicated relationship with the group. He both supported and repressed the group, depending on his political needs at the time. Al-Burhan, who succeeded Al-Bashir as head of the Transitional Military Council and later as Deputy Chairman of the Sovereign Council, has been more guarded in his comments about the group.

As Sudan continues to navigate its political landscape, understanding the roles and motivations of key players like the Muslim Brotherhood, the RSF, and Al-Bashir and Al-Burhan is critical. Only by examining the complex relationships between these groups can we hope to build a more stable and democratic future for Sudan.
