The Road to “Geneva” is made by National Sovereignty!
Rashan Oshi
Because we live in Sudan, and are drowning in its crises where the central focus of the ignition is, it seemed to me that sudden transformations have become the rule, and expectations based on prevailing calculations are the exception.
Throughout the war on Sudan and in its most intense and fiercest chapters, the world has become accustomed to seeing it and interacting with its developments with the theory of “the tiger and the victim”, everyone is waiting for (zero hour) to pounce, and a frantic race is taking place between attempts to contain it, and tame it under the old roofs that are still working until now, the Americans are still using the theory of (the stick and the carrot) with us.
The Americans pressured the Sudanese army SAF to submit to the militias and return them to power by all means.
They did not even provide the weapon of sanctions. They exhausted all pressure cards, the last of which was the language in which the invitation to Geneva was formulated.
It addressed “Burhan” as the commander of the SAF and not the President of the country. They expected that the generals would submit and rush to “Geneva”, but the reality was the opposite of their expectations.
The surprises that changed the paths, while “America” thought that it was the producer and investor of surprises, the Sudanese government’s response to “Geneva” invitation was a surprise that was summarized in five points:
First:
Why was the invitation sent in the name of General Burhan without the title of President of the Sovereignty Council TSC?Is this considered a lack of recognition of the existing government?
Second:
Why was Sudan not consulted in the mediators, some of whom support and back the rebel militias?
Third:
Why were the outcomes of Jeddah Principles Agreement not implemented?
Fourth:
Any agreement other than Jeddah Principles Agreement, which stipulates the evacuation of civilian facilities and citizens’ homes, will not be acceptable to the Sudanese people.
Fifth:
Before calling for any new negotiations, support for the rebel militias must be stopped.
sixth:
The Sudanese government does not refuse to sit down for any negotiations, but it must be based on the above, and before entering into any negotiations, the US government must sit down with the Sudanese government to listen to its observations.
This was the response of the Transitional Sovereignty Council TSC to “Geneva” invitation, which is the position that prompted the United States US to move from the stick to the carrot theory, and then “Blinken” called President “Burhan” and informed him of their recognition of his government, and that “Geneva” talks would be based on “Jeddah” agreement, and he also informed him of his acceptance of bilateral meeting between the governments of Sudan and the United States US and “Blinken” suggested that the meeting be outside Sudan, and the Sudanese side suggested that the meeting be in “Jeddah”.
Surprise of surprises, the resounding success achieved through the operation that hit our Western interests in the head, which is the intensive Eastern diplomatic activity in Sudan during the past week, starting with the visit of the Russian delegation and not ending with the visit of the Foreign Minister to “Iran”.
In the parallel world, the militias are suffering on the battlefield, where the bleeding of leaders has not stopped and they lose a leader every day in Darfur, Gezira , Omdurman, and surprisingly, “Daglo Family ” does not show any influence, but rather stubbornness, obstinacy and a constant effort to change the equations, without carefully considering the possibilities.
Attitude of the Sudanese government was principled, because it was tired of false American promises, and saw that its strategic interests were in the east, and it headed towards that with serious steps, which of course causes terror to the Americans, as the Sudanese-Eastern alliance this time will extend to the depths of the Red Sea, and the Russian bases will become a reality and not a maneuver, so “Blinken” rushed to accept all the conditions of the Sudanese government, which is the last attempt to save American interests in Sudan, but in my opinion, the “sword has preceded the unarmed”.
