  • Details of recent proposals have not been clearly outlined by the government.

Government’s Position

The Sudanese Foreign Ministry reiterated that any peace proposals must align with the country’s vital interests. It rejected any proposals that fail to respect national sovereignty and unity, implying a reserved approach to outside initiatives.

International Efforts and Proposals

International entities, including the U.S. and allies, are actively proposing solutions to the Sudanese conflict, focusing on both immediate and long-term strategies.

  • U.S. adviser Massad Boulos introduced a five-pillar strategy for peace.
  • The strategy includes a humanitarian truce and a civilian government transition.
  • Key international players include Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Britain.

Boulos’ Five-Pillar Strategy

Boulos’ plan calls for an immediate truce, a UN-monitored humanitarian corridor, and a phased negotiation towards a permanent cease-fire. It aims for a structured political process, leading to a civilian government and eventual democratic elections.

Background of the Conflict

Sudan’s ongoing civil war has resulted in severe humanitarian repercussions, necessitating urgent action from both local and international actors.

  • The conflict started in April 2023, causing immense human suffering.
  • Over 13 million people have been displaced internally and externally.
  • The conflict has been characterized by a significant number of atrocities.

International Quartet and Past Proposals

Past proposals focused on temporary truces and long-term political transitions. September 2025 saw a proposal for a three-month humanitarian truce, followed by a comprehensive nine-month transition to civil governance.
