The political “miracle” of Sudan, which began after the fall of dictator al-Bashir in 2019, has sadly devolved into a devastating civil war. As of April 23, 2025, millions of Sudanese have fled their homes, with over 150,000 lives lost and half the population facing acute hunger. How did this transformation occur? Let’s explore the situation further.
- Soedan's political miracle turned into civil war
- Millions of Sudanese displaced and suffering
- 150,000 civilian casualties reported in conflict
- Russia and UAE's involvement in the war
- Ongoing humanitarian crisis with acute hunger
What led to the downfall of Sudan’s political miracle?
The initial promise of democracy in Sudan quickly unraveled due to power struggles among military factions. Key factors include:
- The rise of rival military leaders
- Interventions by foreign nations like Russia and the UAE
- A lack of cohesive governance
The future for Sudan remains bleak but not entirely hopeless. International intervention and support could still play a crucial role in stabilizing the region. It is vital for countries like Belgium to remain engaged and informed about developments in Sudan as they unfold.
