Washington confirms continued efforts to achieve a truce in Sudan

The U.S. is committed to facilitating a humanitarian truce in Sudan, as affirmed by a senior advisor to the president during a recent meeting with Norwegian officials.

Mas'ad Boulous, senior advisor to the U.S. president on Arab and African affairs, has reaffirmed that Washington is committed to its efforts in achieving a humanitarian truce in Sudan. This statement was made during a meeting in the U.S. with Norwegian officials, including State Secretary Andreas Krafvik and Ambassador Anniken Huitfeldt, highlighting international collaborative efforts to address the ongoing crisis in Sudan.

Boulous emphasized the importance of building momentum from the β€˜Call to Action’ event for the Sudan Humanitarian Fund, which was initiated to support urgent crises within the country. He articulated that the ongoing joint efforts are aimed at transitioning to an inclusive government led by civic forces in Sudan, pointing towards a path of stability amidst the humanitarian challenges facing the nation.

The U.S. has been actively engaging with international partners in this endeavor. Recently, Boulous organized an event at the U.S. Institute of Peace, which included discussion about the humanitarian fund's impact on the ground. The meeting with the Quartet composed of the U.S., Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Egypt has also yielded the final text for a framework agreement, signaling potential pathways for peace in a region striving for resolution.
