Sudan's Military Leader Commits to Democratic Transition and Civilian Oversight.
Sudan's military leader, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, has reiterated that the army will be brought under a new civilian-led government as talks on military reforms began on Sunday. The proposed reforms include the integration of the powerful paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) into the regular army. The military and political parties signed a deal in December that called for a civilian-led transition government that would oversee elections in two years. However, pro-democracy protest groups opposed the deal, demanding the inclusion of transitional justice and security reforms.
