Sudan Steadfast Alliance Rejects Internal Dialogue, Fears Partition

• The Steadfast alliance has refused to participate in an internal dialogue aimed at preventing Sudan's partition.
• Reports indicate that President al-Burhan has been holding consultations with various forces to pave the way for internal talks.
• The National Congress Party and Islamic Movement have been excluded from these discussions, sparking concerns about the legitimacy of the process.
• The Steadfast alliance is seeking immediate and genuine solutions to stop the war and address the humanitarian crisis.
• The development has significant implications for Sudan's political stability and its potential impact on business operations and investments in the region.

This, they argue, would lead to the solidification of Sudan's partition and the erosion of its territorial and national unity, which is a crime they will not participate in.

The Sudanese Civil Democratic Alliance, known as 'Steadfast', has announced its refusal to participate in an internal dialogue aimed at preventing the partition of the country. In a statement, the alliance stated that discussing a dialogue within areas controlled by the army ignores the facts of the unannounced division in the country and the varied control over its territories by multiple armed forces. This, they argue, would lead to the solidification of Sudan's partition and the erosion of its territorial and national unity, which is a crime they will not participate in.

The alliance's stance comes as reports emerge that President Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has been holding consultations with various political and civilian forces to pave the way for an internal dialogue. This initiative, announced by al-Burhan on May 26, aims to complete the transition process. However, sources indicate that the National Congress Party and the Islamic Movement have been excluded from these talks. The Steadfast alliance, led by former Prime Minister Abdullah Hamdok, has maintained its position of seeking immediate and genuine solutions to stop the war, emphasizing that they will not participate in any false or ineffective solutions that would perpetuate the crisis or legitimize the war's consequences.

The Steadfast alliance's rejection of internal dialogue has significant implications for Sudan's political stability and its potential impact on business operations and investments in the region. Lawyers and compliance officers should closely monitor this development, as it may signal a shift in the country's trajectory towards greater instability or even partition. The alliance's commitment to finding genuine solutions to stop the war and address the humanitarian crisis is crucial for maintaining peace and security in Sudan.

Lawyers and compliance officers should watch for potential implications on the political stability of Sudan, which may impact business operations and investments in the region.
