Divergent Views on Productivity of Jeddah Talks between Ukraine and Russia

Talks held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, aimed at finding a peaceful resolution to the war between Ukraine and Russia were deemed productive by Ukraine, but Russia dismissed them as a futile attempt to gain support from the Global South. Over 40 countries, including China, India, and the US, participated in the talks, which focused on securing international backing for Ukraine's principles of peace, including the withdrawal of Russian troops and the return of Ukrainian territory. While direct peace talks between Kyiv and Moscow seem unlikely, participants agreed on the importance of continued consultations to pave the way for peace.

Sudan's Ongoing Struggle: A Look at Key Events and International Relations.

Fighting between Sudan's army and the RSF has resulted in multiple ceasefire deals failing and over 1,800 deaths since mid-April. Talks to end the conflict have been suspended after the army accused the RSF of violating truce commitments. Over 1.6 million people have been displaced within Sudan or across its borders. The conflict has attracted armed "fortune seekers" from Mali, Chad, and Niger, according to the UN. Negotiations began in Jeddah in early May to protect civilians and implement ceasefire deals.

Sudan's Conflict: Progress in Peace Talks Amid Ongoing Fighting.

Sudanese military leaders are determined to dissolve the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and prosecute its rebel commander militarily. Talks are underway in Jeddah to withdraw RSF forces outside the capital and assemble them in a gathering site before merging those who met the conditions for military service and demobilizing the rest. The Sudanese military stressed that they would not accept any international plan that leads to another solution. The fate of the framework agreement is uncertain, and the army may appoint a caretaker government for two years if an inclusive agreement cannot be reached.

Sudanese factions meet in Jeddah for ceasefire talks.

Envoys of warring factions in Sudan are holding talks in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to address the humanitarian crisis caused by the conflict, but not to end the war. The talks are the first serious attempt to end the fighting that has killed hundreds and triggered a mass exodus. However, there is no sign of lasting relief, and numerous ceasefires have been violated since the conflict erupted on 15 April. The scope of the talks is limited, and analysts have advised caution on the outcome, noting the presence of hardliners in the delegations and recent RSF territorial gains that may dissuade the powerful militia from concessions now.

Sudan's warring factions to hold talks in Jeddah.

Envoys from Sudan's army and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) attended talks in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday, in the first serious attempt to end the three-week conflict that has turned parts of Khartoum into war zones. Both sides have made it clear they would only discuss a humanitarian truce, not negotiate an end to the war. Witnesses reported gunfire and air strikes on Saturday, while the World Health Organisation warned of a humanitarian catastrophe if clashes continue.
