Is the world finally focusing on Sudan? | Inside Story
It’s been 16 months since the lives of millions of people in Sudan were plunged into conflict and uncertainty.
Since then, the fight for control between the army and Rapid Support Forces has spread across the country.
The US, in partnership with the African Union and regional body IGAD, is hosting a new round of talks to end the violence.
But so far only a delegation from the paramilitary group is present in Geneva — its rival, the army, hasn’t turned up.
So where does this leave the prospect of a political settlement?
And how much pressure can the US exert on both sides to reach an agreement?
