Those are the same conditions previously set out by Prime Minister Kamil Idris before the United Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Observers see this as the sort of \u2018victor\u2019s terms\u2019 normally imposed after an opponent has been decisively defeated and called upon to surrender. Yet that is not the reality on the battlefield. Peace settlements are generally built on what he described as an \u201cuneasy balance of power\u201d and an implicit acknowledgement that neither side can achieve a military victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Awad argued, however, that the army\u2019s conditions are now more realistic because the RSF is entering a period of decline. He pointed to the army opening new fronts in West Darfur, defending El Obeid, recapturing Kurmuk, increasing international pressure including a European Parliament condemnation and growing pressure on the United Arab Emirates, as well as internal ethnic divisions within the RSF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also described the army\u2019s acceptance of transferring power to an \u201cagreed\u201d civilian government, rather than an \u201celected\u201d one, as a significant shift. Likewise, its acceptance of excluding extremist groups could, in his view, allow political successors to the dissolved National Congress Party to re-emerge under new banners rather than in their former guise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2018A sedative position\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Journalist and political analyst Sibawayh Yousif told Radio Dabanga that the army\u2019s insistence that the RSF withdraw from towns before signing a ceasefire amounts to little more than \u2018a sedative position\u2019 \u2013 an attempt to ease the anger and pressure coming from domestic groups that favour continuing the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In reality, he said, information emerging from recent discussions suggests there has already been practical coordination on the separation of forces and other security arrangements. That indicates withdrawals form part of a broader package already agreed between the two warring sides under the US proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What the army is saying publicly, he argued, is little more than a political manoeuvre designed to placate those opposed to a negotiated settlement, even though these issues were not part of the mutual negotiations themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reuters leaks and sidelining Kabashi<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taher El Moatasim, editor-in-chief of <em>Sawt Al Umma<\/em> newspaper, told Radio Dabanga that the recent meeting of Sudan\u2019s Security and Defence Council was a direct response to a Reuters report on documents exchanged between the US administration and the Sudanese military.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said official statements urging the public to ignore rumours should not be interpreted as an attempt to avoid responding to Washington. Rather, they were a response to leaks from sources close to the Sovereignty Council concerning a meeting between Lt Gen Shamseldin Kabashi and Massad Boulos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to El Moatasim, the Security and Defence Council was seeking to retain exclusive control over the peace process by authorising only its chairman to deal with the issue, effectively preventing Lt Gen Kabashi from pursuing any separate initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Military expert: Security and Defence Council meeting marks a strategic turning point<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brig Dr Jamal El Shaheed, a specialist in security and military affairs, described the recent Security and Defence Council meeting, chaired by Gen Abdelfattah El Burhan, as a highly significant moment in the state\u2019s management of both the war and the peace process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking to Radio Dabanga, he said the meeting came at a time of rapid military developments and battlefield gains by the Sudanese Armed Forces and allied forces. That, he said, reflected an official recognition that developments on the battlefield would have a direct bearing on the political process and the prospects for any future settlement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his view, the council\u2019s praise for the armed forces was not merely symbolic but represented a clear assessment of the changing balance of power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>El Shaheed added that the council\u2019s insistence that it alone has authority over matters of war, peace and negotiations sends a clear message both domestically and internationally. It underlines the state\u2019s determination to maintain centralised control over strategic decision-making and prevent competing initiatives from weakening Sudan\u2019s negotiating position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also welcomed the council\u2019s dismissal of reports concerning national security, describing it as evidence of a strong awareness of the importance of information discipline at a sensitive stage, helping to protect national security from rumours circulating on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, he said the council\u2019s welcome for peace initiatives demonstrated that Sudan\u2019s leadership views military action as a means of achieving peace and stability rather than an end in itself, provided any settlement reflects the realities on the ground and safeguards the rights and aspirations of the Sudanese people for development and prosperity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sws_supernormalaction\"><button on=\"tap:superwebshare-lightbox\"
