    Theresa Fallon “Many people would like to see China play a constructive role, but I think now that we're in the third year of the war, this idea is wearing a bit thin.” 18 hours ago

    Mahjoob Zweiri “What we have witnessed in the past few hours is that they talk about an agreement on the first stage. It could be understood that Hamas wants to release itself from the pressure globally, including the United States. So, they are giving concessions on the first stage, which leads to 40 days of ceasefire and exchange of captives. I think 33 old and sick captives. And then moving on to other stages. But we are seeing that we are going back to the main conditions, which means we are still talking about the main principles [complete ceasefire and withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza] that Hamas talked about. As the time of some sort of agreement on the first stage came, the Israeli military and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu came to say actually, there is no agreement: We will go to Rafah regardless of any agreement. It reflects the divisions within the Israelis and crisis within the Israeli politics. On the other hand, Hamas has been more cautious. They do not want to show real progress made but they also do not want to say things have not changed. I think it's obvious some change has happened otherwise we would not expect [CIA chief] William Burns to be in the region.” 18 hours ago

“The worst-case scenario could see security forces fracture. There was a real risk junior army officers could attempt to topple al-Burhan and the rest of the old guard. Al-Burhan is always worried about junior officers orchestrating a coup.”

“The military wants the streets to lose credibility, so that they can say that they're putting down a violent insurgency. They could then call the [street] violence whatever they want. They could stick a label of terrorism on it.”

“I believe that Elbadawi [Ibrahim Elbadawi] is a man of integrity, and that he would never accept to be a figurehead of an authority that is de facto controlled and directed by the military. The military now needs to do some serious soul searching. They can continue killing Sudanese people in the streets with battlefield guns, or act responsibly by stepping back and allowing a transitional government led by civilians to take over.”

“By cutting a deal directly with the military he [Abdalla Hamdok] succeeded in squandering the political goodwill he enjoyed and made himself a target of the street along with his military partners.”

“The November 21 deal lacked public support, apparent in the continuation of the protests against him [Abdalla Hamdok] and his inability to appoint any ministers. It meant that no one wanted to share this pact with him. In their [protesters'] view, all he did was legitimise the coup. Hamdok was like a fig leaf.”

“Despite everything that has been done to reach a consensus … it has not happened. The fragmentation of the political forces and conflicts between the [military and civilian] components of the transition. Sudan is crossing a dangerous turning point that threatens its whole survival.”

“Protests could now be held against both the military and Hamdok following the deal. The deal was a major compromise on the part of the prime minister as it essentially validates what has been called bad behaviour by this coup. Protesters have every right to be concerned about what message this sends to the country and to the prospects of the democratic transition.”

“I have made up my mind and signed this political agreement, although I know that many may disagree, object, or reject it simply because the people's ambitions and aspirations were much higher. I reiterate that I do not have any personal gains, otherwise I wouldn't have accepted the office in the first place with all its challenges over the past two years.”

“It is our pledge - a pledge we made to ourselves, the Sudanese people and the international community - that we are committed to completing the democratic transition, holding elections on time, and committed to not stopping any political activity as long as it is peaceful, and within the bounds of the constitutional declaration and the parts that have not been suspended. We are committed to handing over power to a civilian government of national competency and we pledge to preserve the transition from any interference that can hinder it. The Sudanese army does not kill citizens, and there are investigation committees to reveal what happened.”

“The essence of this crisis … is the inability to reach a consensus on a national project among the revolutionary and change forces. This is due to the deep splits among civilians and among the military, as well as between the civilians and the military. The serious political crisis that we are living in right now, I would not be exaggerating to say, is the worst and most dangerous crisis that not only threatens the transition, but threatens our whole country. I am not neutral or a mediator in this conflict. My clear and firm position is complete alignment to the civilian democratic transition. This crisis was not created today, it did not descend upon us from the sky, and it did not surprise us at all.”

“[The military leaders] blame politicians for the current situation of the country. The spoke about the economy. They said that the politicians seem to be focused on getting power and not focusing on the issues that matter to civilians.”

“Politicians are the main cause behind coups because they have neglected the average citizen … and are more concerned fighting over how they can stay in power. This has created disenchantment among citizens.”
