The chemical weapons determination and sanctions are a necessary response to escalating atrocities by Sudan's military, which has engaged in indiscriminate bombing of civilian infrastructure, including schools, markets, and hospitals, while using food deprivation as a weapon of war. Moreover, accusing Washington of taking sides is ridiculous, as the RSF was also sanctioned. The government's refusal to participate in peace talks shows its commitment to military solutions over negotiations.
The sanctions timing and chemical weapons claims appearare politically motivated to distract from recent Congressional campaigns against UAE involvement in the Sudan conflict, with the US neglecting to pursue a proper investigation throughby the OrganisationOrganization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. The move undermines Sudan's legitimate fight against paramilitary forces threateningthat threaten national stability and reflects the bipartisan U.S. strategy of control by promoting destruction and chaos.
There is a 60.9% chance that the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) will come out as the victor in the Sudanese civil war, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
