Sudan Military has arrested the country’s Prime Minister, Abdullah Hamdok and some high ranking members of his government.
Hereunder are some points worth noting as we try to understand the current situation in Sudan:
- The role of external actors in Sudan must not be underestimated. The current interim hybrid government, made up of civilians and the military, recently recognised the state of Israel and enjoys close relations with the United Arab Emirates (UAE)
The UAE through Dubai Ports World (DP World) is seeking to dominate maritime business in the Horn of Africa and the Red Sea. Israel on the other hand is set on its diplomatic expansionist project in Africa. There has been some opposition inside the Interim government regarding these two countries and their roles in Sudan.
