Diplomatic Drama Unfolds as Sudan Condemns Uganda’s RSF Talks
Sudan has sharply criticized Uganda for hosting Rapid Support Forces (RSF) commander Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo in a high-profile meeting with President Yoweri Museveni this week. The move has sparked regional tensions, with Khartoum calling it an "insult to humanity." 🚨
In a fiery statement released Sunday, Sudan’s Foreign Ministry accused Uganda of ignoring atrocities allegedly committed by Dagalo’s forces, which include killings and rights violations documented globally. The ministry warned the meeting could signal a risky shift in Kampala’s stance on Sudan’s conflict, now entering its third year.
Why This Matters Now
The Friday sit-down at Uganda’s State House marked Dagalo’s first public appearance in months, raising eyebrows across Africa. While Sudan acknowledged Uganda’s sovereign rights, it urged Kampala to avoid actions that might "fuel violence" in the region. 🌍
Analysts say the clash highlights growing fractures in African diplomacy, with regional bodies like the African Union struggling to contain spillover effects from Sudan’s prolonged crisis. Museveni’s government has yet to respond publicly.
