"Foreign ministers of the four countries put forth a plan to end the deadly conflict in the northeast African nationand that called for a nine-month transitional process to establish civilian rule. The transition should "meet the aspirations of the Sudanese people towards smoothly establishing an independent, civilian-led government with broad-based legitimacy and accountability," the statement from the four nations said."
"The so-called "Quad" countries are known to have the most sway with the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which began fighting each other in 2023. The conflict has resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of people, displaced millions and triggered what the United Nations describes as one of the world's worst humanitarian crises. A meeting of the foreign ministers of the four countries was first slated for July in Washington."
The United States, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt called for a three-month humanitarian truce in Sudan followed by a permanent ceasefire and proposed a nine-month transitional process to establish civilian rule. The transition should meet the aspirations of the Sudanese people toward an independent, civilian-led government with broad legitimacy and accountability. The Quad countries hold significant influence with both the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The conflict, which began in 2023, has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions and triggered one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises. Egypt backs the regular army while the UAE faces accusations of supporting the RSF.
