Sudan peace talks begin despite military absence

Military authorities said the RSF had failed to meet key conditions of the Jeddah declaration, including the withdrawal of fighters from civilian homes and public facilities.

In a statement posted on social media platform X, RSF said it had arrived in Geneva, Switzerland, for talks and urged the military to “commit itself to meeting the democratic aspirations of the Sudanese people.”

The military also boycotted the talks, opposing the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) involvement as a monitor, which it accuses of supporting the RSF.

Delegations representing the United States, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the African Union and the United Nations attended, along with the UAE.

According to the UN migration agency, if conflict and restrictions on humanitarian access continue in Sudan, there could be tens of thousands of preventable deaths.

The United States says the crisis has reached unprecedented levels, with millions facing hunger and displacement.
