The Splintering of Sudan

Sudan is entangled in a rapidly escalating civil war, marked by widespread protests, violent clashes, and an alarming surge in refugees fleeing the turmoil. Amidst this chaos, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) swift advances are now intensifying fears of a potential state collapse, one that would likely plunge the region into chaos. With a fragmented government and military embroiled in enforcing their contentious autocratic rule, Sudan's path to peace appears increasingly precarious. So why are more and more outside actors getting involved here? What happens if the state does collapse, and who is supplying these forces with the means to wage this war? We ask our panel of experts.
On the panel this week:
- Will Brown (CSIS)
- Joe Siegle (ACSS)
- Will Carter (Norwegian Refugee Council)

If the rumour is true, Russia has been flying planes full of gold to various countries (Iran, the Stans and perhaps others) to avoid sanctions. Besides no one wants to get stuck with useless Rubles. So while Russia may be a large producer of gold, I suspect it isn't enough and that may also be a reason for which side they've taken. It also explains their eagerness to build gold smelting facilities in Niger, out of the goodness of their own hearts of course.

I was anticipating this video. Does it address the operation of Ukranian military assets within Sudan to combat Wagner forces?
