One year ago this week, a devastating conflict erupted in Sudan when a fragile alliance between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces collapsed. The war initially began around the capital city of Khartoum but quickly spread to other parts of Sudan, including Darfur, Port Sudan and the Gezira state, situated in the country’s agricultural heartland. One year on, the conflict has driven nearly 9 million people from their homes, collapsed the country’s health system and created the world’s largest hunger and displacement crisis. “This is essentially a war between two generals,” says Khalid Mustafa Medani, chair of the African studies program at McGill University, who explains why the warring parties have “absolutely no legitimacy in civil society” and how the fighting is weaponizing international aid. “Despite the severity of this conflict, there is only one solution and only one interest on the part of the majority of Sudanese - 99% of Sudanese - and that is the restoration of full civilian democracy.”

How this war in Sudan and East-Congo have not been properly discussed at the United Nations is sadonic and obvious double standard.
UN is soooo biased, sadly!
They have no lobby, that's why African countries need to be there for each other
its because the world cares more about Gaza lmao, Gaza receives the most humanitarian aid in the entire world, also it doesnt help that arabs are racist towards africans
Thank you for finally talking about Sudan
Prayers for Sudan🇸🇩
Great analysis and summary of this neglected crisis.
He said the truth this is not a fight between two generals
It’s been so much pain for the citizens of 🇸🇩 Sudan. It must end for good.
"End"? Are you nuts? DREAM ON.
@@user-ov6ny3uc3l “End” the disruptions of a society. Innocent people must not suffer from those thugs. You said “Nuts”!!
You should be wise enough for the word “End.”
Thank you for speaking about Sudan, I didn't understand it very well and I've seen so little about it. I hope you can explain to us about Congo, Tigray and other countries who are suffering violence too.
It's devastating to know civilians, mostly women and children always pay for other people's ambitions.
Breakthrough News do a weekly live which covers the African continent's issues as well as other global issues . They have regular guests from Sudan, DRC etc 👍🏻
Wow, learned a lot. Thanks. So many people suffering in the world caused by so few.
THANK YOU FOR COVERING THIS
Thank you DN for this rare and thorough report from the very informed professor. Well done.
Coverage of this has been sorely lacking
Breakthrough News do regular reports from Sudan, DRC .... Brilliant channel 👍🏻
Thank you for covering this. My god, those poor children. 😢
I hope the journalists pay attention to the situation in Sudan 😢
Thank you for covering this. It’s been a year and couldn’t understand what the conflict was about and who - external countries- was involved. Thank for clearing that up. A disturbing trend is how this war is conducted. Starving children…destroying hospitals…the fact that it’s based on greed. All of it is so unnecessary. Breaks my heart. 💔 this has to end. The sooner the better. Free Sudan 🇸🇩
It is inhumane to never tire of fighting!
sad to see this happening in Sudan still . Time for peace to reign . Excellent interview by Khaldi Mustafa Medani . Insightful & Analytical
All states,and countries should be able to feed Sudan if they wouldn't send millions on war's!
So disturbing how the world is!
High teach weaponry has been spotted in the Eastern part of Congo and those weapons are supplied by Israel.
Imperialism is behind most conflicts. Divide and conquer.
No true, stop with blaming everything on Israel or Jews.
Exactly correct! Do you know that Elbit systems routinely supplies high tech weapons to many African countries? Why have those high tech weapons been tested on the Palestinian people in Gaza. Why does Gallant brag about them being "battle proven on human animals"?
Stop equating Israel with Jews 🤡
@@theflint7405he never said Jews specifically. He said Israel. This line of rhetoric will exhaust all the meaning of anti semitism, so please stop.
Sudan!!!YOU are not forgotten..no way..red green black 🖤 ❤❤..we african American is with u forever T.L.C..forever 😢
No aid under these circumstances.
So none of our US taxes can help Sudan😢😢😢
Fuck that
How can our taxes help Sudan. Are you kidding me. That would take away from Israel and Ukraine
Thank you to dr medani for bringing light the shameful lack of attention to the far greatest suffering in the world today. We have to acknowledge that based on the attention paid to suffering, especially proportionally, black lives seem still not to matter. Except for Egypt who had been willing to offer asylum to sudan, while no one in the whole world is willing to shelter Gaza Arabs. They just weaponize pseudo sympathy which is all words and no actual help.
Are you aware that the victims of genocide in Gaza are NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE?
Israel has been asking any country to offer them asylum. No one wants them. Especially not the Arab states
@@ArleeStarrcheck it out for yourself. Don't take my word for it or anyone word on the Internet. Always check for yourself. The "Starvation" in Gaza is imminent. Go find out how many young children under the age of 5 are starving to death every day in Sudan. Also look up yemen. Nigeria. Then try decide why is it that you are only talking about the smallest group with the least starvation and then always remember to follow the money.
Thank you democracy now for this peace on Sudan, I noticed that you report on Gaza every day but not the Congo and Sudan, but I understand because the African news don't report on it every day as well so I just want to say thank you
this sudan civil war create by 2 general who covet position of ruler after 2 of them overthrow the previous ruler. they hungry for power is insane🤬🤬
The US alone could end the worlds' famines with the amount of corn used to make ethanol mandated to burn in our vehicles every year!
Power to the people
8:33 Heavy ❤
The war has to end for all's benefit. Also I hate to say but the world is sick and tired of these internal wars in Sudan. time for them to find peace and to stop torturing its population.
Are you serious?? Most people don't even know. Too many still use MSM to get their information unfortunately
It would help Biden secure black voters if he expressed compassion and offered aid to these black Sudanese people.
Biden doesn't care
Biden...compassion???
Will moderate American NAZI, Ami Goodman mention that Sudan was one of 7 countries on the US list of countries to be destroyed more than 20 years ago? 4 Star General Wesley Clark explained this to Ami Goodman on "DemocracyNow" and it is probably Ami's most famous interview! But Ami has forgotten all about it?
What kind of anal sphincter posts such name calling and misleading drivel? She did the interview, so what's your purpose with the misinformation?
Can you add the link? Why do you call Amy Nazi?
Hi@@roselipton2113
posting links on youtube might make the message disappear.
Copy & paste "7 countries 5 years clark democracy now" & post it in on the RUclips search bar & you will find Amy's interview with 4 Star General Wesley Clark.
So how many murder charges do we have to issue?
😪🕊✌️
Why do we have to keep reinventing the wheel on aid distribution?
😢
❤
Thanks DN & Dr. Medani for this highly informative interview. Few outlets reporting on this humanitarian catastrophe 😢
🙏❤💚🖤🤍🇸🇩🇸🇩🇸🇩
See you never hear about this and it needs to be told loud they're suffering over their millions of children women men, they are starving to death there I mean starving they have not had very much food in a few years where is everybody protesting for these people there is at least 10 wars going on over there not one can different wars.
Showcase India and its subcontinental countries even...
Showcase the reality.. 🎉
Grass roots we are Grass root forever...Amen ❤black 🖤.
No, there is not one solution,
They said so P
And they just keep on pinching kids left and right. There is no wonder why things are so bad there and in the whole world.
So many people suffering and most are forgotten or maybe we should say nobody cares? No weekly demonstrations for these people or the people in Yemen, where 400.000 people have died. Why can't people get a long or at least live and let live?
Blame the MSM for not keeping you informed. DN! does, but not enough concerned people tune in, so they are unaware of the worldwide suffering and death.

🤔
We need more women in power 😁🤷🏻♀️
Ah, perhaps, but don't forget Margaret Thatcher.
@@dianal.clausen8118 And Lizz Truss... and look at women like Nancy Pelosy, Suella Braverman, Hilary Clinton. Horrid blood thirsty capitalist imperialists.
@@dianal.clausen8118 With many, many more exceptions. Golda Meir, and all znist women, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and many Dem women voters and those in congress. All Republican women. Giorgia Meloni in Italy, and I'm sure there are many more.
Can’t they go to border. And get all this free stuff. I bet that border will be closed immediately.
Not the right color. 😢
Bla, bla, bla , bla. Search the money flow!
Always the islamic countries...
The guests analysis is superficial and skips over the main cause of the war which is an attempted coup by the RSF against the army. The second point is that Sudanese civil society is part of the coup. He is also lying about the resistance committees being targeted the resistance committees have joined the army.
How do you have a long overdue discussion about this genocide without any mention of the ethnic cleansing being committed by Arab RSF upon the black indigenous peoples? I am astounded as no one seems to want to risk offending Arabs. Is this a "Gaza effect"?
Remember that the Sudan government and its people living in Khartoum and the big cities supported the RSF as they did horrible crimes in Darfur against the native Africans that live there. Now, the RSF has turned on the Sudanese government and now all the Sudanese in the center and east of the country will get what is coming to them.
It's not about that.... it's what you want it to be...
No one support RSF and many don't support National Army either... however national army is the official army..RSF is just non Sudanese mercenaries who just want to steal and Sudanese understand seem to be aware of that even amid conflicts...
It's not civil war....it's what RSF trys to promote.. However, RSF is killing and raping even the people they claim to " support" so it's only a lie and joke that didn't work because they failed even the propaganda war.
Now the ideal solution is civilians government but both military want power unfortunately only political solutions will work... Because military especially Al-Burhan can't lead..and Dagalo is just a criminal mercenary who was forced to act civil but he couldn't...so Al-Burhan is the best of the worst if civilians can't lead.
This is terrible but it's not Gaza so who cares?
My God we need to support and be inclusive in their democracy and help them follow through we don't just need to throw money at people we need to help the process and enforce safety ceasefire and communication
