Sudanese Justice Minister Urges Demilitarization, Reiterates Need for Domestic Dialogue Process
A key obstacle to peace in Sudan is the country's reliance on foreign-backed fighters and mercenaries, according to the justice minister. He stressed that a democratic transition can only be achieved through a dialogue process led by Sudanese citizens themselves.
The justice minister made these remarks during an appearance at the Doha Forum, where he emphasized the importance of expelling external forces involved in the country's internal conflicts. By doing so, he hopes to create space for domestic-led efforts to resolve the crisis.
Critics argue that foreign interventions and backing of armed groups have hindered Sudan's progress towards stability and peace. The justice minister's stance suggests a shift towards prioritizing local initiatives over external support.
Sudan has been grappling with internal turmoil since the overthrow of former President Omar al-Bashir in 2019. Efforts to negotiate a peaceful resolution have stalled, leaving the country mired in instability.
