Unsettling Developments in Khartoum: Lack of Commitment and a Fractured Army

 


Recent events in the capital city of Khartoum have raised serious concerns about the commitment to peace and stability in Sudan. The arrival of military reinforcements, including armored vehicles and heavy weapons, aimed at clashing with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and ending their control, has highlighted the lack of seriousness in Al-Burhan's commitment to the agreement signed in the Jeddah negotiations. Furthermore, this development has brought to light the violation of the agreed armistice, including the ceasefire and the opening of safe passages for providing humanitarian aid. These troubling occurrences indicate a lack of unified command within the Sudanese army, further complicating the path to lasting peace.

The influx of military reinforcements to Khartoum underscores a lack of sincerity in upholding the agreements reached during the Jeddah negotiations. These agreements were intended to foster peace and stability, but the recent clashes with the RSF indicate a deviation from the agreed-upon path. Al-Burhan's commitment, which was crucial in securing the initial agreement, now appears questionable, casting doubts on the prospects of a lasting resolution.

The violation of the agreed armistice is another disconcerting development. The ceasefire, designed to halt hostilities and pave the way for peaceful negotiations, has been compromised by the clashes between the army and the RSF. Additionally, the opening of safe passages for providing humanitarian aid, a critical aspect of the agreement, has been neglected. These violations not only hinder progress towards peace but also exacerbate the suffering of the Sudanese people, who are in dire need of humanitarian assistance.

The presence of a unified command within the Sudanese army is crucial for maintaining stability and implementing agreed-upon measures. However, the current situation in Khartoum suggests a lack of such unified command. The decision-making power within the military establishment is reportedly influenced by the Muslim Brotherhood, further muddying the waters and raising concerns about the army's commitment to the agreement and the Saudi initiative. This fragmented command structure undermines the trust and confidence necessary for achieving a sustainable peace.

The recent arrival of military reinforcements in Khartoum, the clashes with the RSF, and the violation of the agreed armistice highlight the challenges that Sudan faces in its quest for peace and stability. The lack of seriousness in Al-Burhan's commitment, combined with the absence of a unified command within the army, further compounds the complexity of the situation. It is imperative for all parties involved to address these issues urgently, recommit to the agreements made in the Jeddah negotiations, and establish a unified command structure. Only through sincere efforts and cooperation can Sudan pave the way for a future of peace, prosperity, and unity.

Al Gore has history of climate predictions, statements proven false

  Noted climate activist and former Vice President Al Gore, who made headlines this week after he claimed   global warming was "boiling the oceans,"   has a history of making climate-related proclamations later proven to be false. During remarks made Wednesday at the  World Economic Forum summit  in Davos, Switzerland, Gore warned that continued carbon emissions into the atmosphere would destroy the planet and lead to widespread calamities. "We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees."
