The Failure of International Diplomacy in the Sudan Crisis

A recent report by The Ethiopian Reporter analyzes the perceived failure of international diplomatic efforts regarding the ongoing crisis in Sudan. The report highlights that the UN Security Council has convened over 35 formal sessions, while the African Union and IGAD have held more than 40 interventions to address the conflict. Furthermore, the Arab League has dedicated at least 12 ministerial sessions, and various Western-backed initiatives, such as the Jeddah Process, have attempted to find a resolution. Despite these numerous high-level meetings and diplomatic engagements, the conflict in Sudan persists without a sustainable solution. The analysis underscores the significant gap between the high frequency of diplomatic interventions and the lack of tangible stability on the ground in the Horn of Africa.
