That is good from you America!

Al-Rikabi Hassan Yaqoub

The dictionary of Sudanese proverbs is rich and contains many expressive popular proverbs. Proverbs are considered a major component of literature and popular culture in Sudan. Proverbs are often used to embody and describe political and social events and summarize them in a single phrase or sentence that greatly eliminates the need to write articles or elaborate on explanation and detail in order to convey a specific idea or message.
Among these popular proverbs is the proverb that says (That is good from you, O mosque).
The story of this proverb is about a man who did not go to the mosque to pray in congregation out of laziness and was content to pray alone at home until he became famous for that.
The people of the village began to blame him for that and criticized him for this action and attributed it to him in the speech. Since the man had no argument to remove blame from himself, since praying in congregation in the mosque is better than praying at home in terms of reward and recompense, and he had no excuse that would exempt him from going to the mosque, he reluctantly agreed to pray in the mosque.
On the first day he went to the mosque, he found it closed, so he burst into joy and said (That is good from you, O mosque).
He quickly returned to his house and went back to pray at home.
It is reported that Washington has submitted a request to the Sudanese government for an American delegation to visit Sudan on August 7, including the Director of the US Agency for International Development, Samantha Power, the US Special Envoy to Sudan, Tom Perriello, and the US Chargé d’Affaires to Sudan, Colin Krenwelje, to discuss with the Sudanese side the resumption of negotiations between the army and the rebel militia of Daglo family in Geneva instead of Jeddah.
So far, the matter seems logical and largely consistent with the direction of the current US administration towards moving the Sudan dossier in the context of supporting the Democratic Party’s election campaign after Biden withdrew from the presidential race and his stock declined in front of the controversial Republican Donald Trump, and the nomination of Kamala Harris as the party’s candidate for the presidency.
But Washington itself spoiled this step when it presented Sudan with strange demands related to the completion of its delegation’s supposed visit to Sudan, as it stipulated that its delegation’s visit be preceded by US guard units to protect the delegation, and that the talks be held for only a few hours with the Sudanese side at Port Sudan Airport, and not at the official government headquarters in the temporary administrative capital in Port Sudan, after the visit was scheduled to last two days.
The Sudanese government responded with a categorical rejection of these American conditions in their entirety, which prompted the American side to cancel the visit, and Sudan had the right to reject these strange situations and demands that were unusual in the field of international relations and had no precedent in the context of bilateral relations between the two countries.
I think that these situations are not only provocative and arrogant, as American foreign policy is characterized by arrogance and haughtiness, and there is nothing new in that, but Washington wanted with these strange conditions to implicitly affirm its non-recognition of the legitimacy of the current government in Sudan, and that Burhan is merely an army commander in a state of conflict with the militia leader, whom Washington does not treat as presidents, but rather summons him to meet the American delegation at the airport or perhaps on the plane, thus placing the Sudanese army on an equal footing with the rebellious Daglo family ilitia, which Washington supported in its failed attempt to seize power on April 15 of last year, and its description of the war as a struggle for power between (two generals). Thus, Washington wants to lay the foundation for the negotiations planned in Geneva based on placing the Sudanese army SAF and the rebellious Daglo family ilitia on two equal scales, and the goal of that is clear, which is to transform the defeat of the militia in the field into a victory at the negotiating table and to jump over the reality on the battlefield and to bypass the Jeddah Agreement, which obligated the militia to leave civilian facilities and homes.
Citizens and did not abide by that, and this is, by Allah , a bad measure and a bad measure.
The President of the Sovereignty Council TSC did well by rejecting the American conditions. He was aware of the American trap and, with his auspicious rejection, preserved the sovereignty of an entire country and an entire people who continued to suffer from the fire of war that America and its regional agents caused to ignite and fan its flames.
Al-Burhan did it and saved Sudan from the predicament of participating in the Geneva negotiations that were set up to save Daglo family militia from defeat and return it again to the circle of action, along with its hateful civilian arm (Taqddum ), after US announced the cancellation of the visit and thus blew up the (harmful) Geneva platform, and his inner voice says (That is good from you, America).
