Sudan’s military leader rules out pre-conflict reconciliation with RSF

According to Sudan’s Sovereign Council leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan any return to the pre-conflict status with the rival Rapid Support Forces (RSF) is “off the table”. Speaking at the country’s 69th independence anniversary, Al-Burhan called the RSF “murderers and criminals” ruling out the paramilitary group’s reintegration into Sudanese society.
Al-Burhan blamed the militia for the widespread violence, starvation, and displacement faced by Sudanese citizens, stressing that the situation could not go back to what it was before the outbreak of conflict.
