00:00:00Even the colonies advisor, meaning for the Arab demon, meaning the one who
00:00:03comes out with all the colonial
00:00:06and imperial arrogance in the world, and writes that
00:00:10one of the biggest and most important
00:00:13achievements and developments in the Sudanese crisis is the increase in the delegation of civilian
00:00:17forces
00:00:19to Washington, meaning these are forces that already live with you
00:00:22and you send them wherever you want, right?
00:00:25Welcome, dear viewers. This You are the one who arranges their trips
00:00:28and arranges for them
00:00:35what to say and what not to say, and some news says they even sent
00:00:37and achieving victories over Taha Hussein
00:00:39to America. So I think that the talk about
00:00:43them being two parties who are trying to convince
00:00:47that the militia's structure us of them or portray them to us
00:00:51is at least not prudent, because in the end,
00:00:54these people express the same interests, which is
00:00:58insisting on maintaining the institutional military
00:01:02and political position of the terrorist militia in the future of Sudan,
00:01:05extorting Sudanese people to re-engineer the state in
00:01:09to confirm exchange for the war period. This is the equation they are trying to impose
00:01:13make this on us, saying, "Brother, for this situation to be measured, you must accept a political engineering
00:01:17by the Quartet that determines who participates, who
00:01:20has the right, who is Sudanese and who is not Sudanese, who enters
00:01:24before we begin and who does not enter the political process." And I think that
00:01:27is rejected. If Sudanese people agreed that only one person
00:01:31should enter this political process, it would be with the Sudanese,
00:01:34but what should the Sudanese discuss in their political process
00:01:39has its geopolitical position in and their political future? This is an issue related to the exercise
00:01:42that contributes to security and stability in of sovereign acts, related to the fundamentals of international law,
00:01:45related to a sovereign
00:01:47and prosperity in state. Internal political affairs are internal affairs. They have no
00:01:50right to interfere in them. Sudan,
00:01:53officers despite this, despite its sovereign right to exercise
00:01:56that the political process is an internal right after it,
00:02:00it discusses in order
00:02:02this war, Doctor, in to try to reduce the level of international guest in the first file on pressures that
00:02:06Abu Dhabi is conspiring and planning for.
00:02:11with the They say after that, we have no objection to the international
00:02:14role being a supporting role, a facilitating
00:02:18armed forces over role, a mediating role, but not a mediator
00:02:21role, nor a role that tries to block
00:02:24an agenda that grants the enemy
00:02:27through politics, diplomacy, and international
00:02:31interfaces what it failed to achieve
00:02:34with mercenaries and hundreds of flights of planes
00:02:37and drones, weapons, and so on, in an attempt to divide
00:02:41Sudan. I think that this is important in
00:02:43the current attempt that we are seeing, the Quintet, which
00:02:47they call repackaging old wine
00:02:50in new bottles, and of course, it is open,
00:02:54but Ahmed, I, I mean, I noticed something, I mean, these groups
00:02:58refused for the Quintet to meet with them last time and told them, "You must
00:03:01bring these people." So it seems
00:03:04they have some influence on the Quintet,
00:03:07and therefore, they brought them
00:03:09the militia begun to disintegrate their people. What prevents them from having a condition next time in
00:03:13determining
00:03:15who participates in the Sudanese political dialogue, and therefore,
00:03:19we find ourselves in a process that re-produces what is called
00:03:23the framework agreement that caused this
00:03:26war, and because of which Sudanese people are now suffering.
00:03:35The main reason or the main motivator or the actual
00:03:39outcome of the Quartet's statement, which is
00:03:42the Quintet, is the extension of
00:03:46its application. Meaning, the Quintet cannot
00:03:49exceed the framework of the Quartet, otherwise,
00:03:53I mean, the Quintet is not a body
00:03:57but it refused to participate that has an Security Council
00:03:58in the meeting with resolution supporting it, neither from the African Union nor anyone else. So
00:04:02it relies mainly on what they call "good offices" or the diplomatic
00:04:06initiative, which is good faith in dealing with it.
00:04:10and its implications in this But the mandate and the authority of the Quintet
00:04:14is to implement the political part of
00:04:19attacks, so it wakes up to the Quartet's statement,
00:04:21defeats and sleeps to which is practically the framework agreement that caused the conflict, because it preserves
00:04:25the next day for today's truce. What
00:04:28every agent who thought will result from it? The Quintet has no
00:04:32involvement in this matter. What will result from a ceasefire,
00:04:35if it happens today, first of all, is that millions
00:04:40Dhabi and are hosting them in of Sudanese in the occupied areas in Darfur and Kordofan will remain
00:04:44with the militias among them.
00:04:45the healthy flee They will remain without a regular state system, without police, without
00:04:49hospitals, without water, without electricity, without
00:04:52schools, without anything. Yes, they will remain subject
00:04:55to the terror of the militias and will remain subject to killing,
00:04:58economic exploitation, harassment, and all kinds
00:05:02of torture and humiliation that they are subjected to, and our people in
00:05:05Darfur and Kordofan every day. The truce
00:05:09practically means that all the areas with terrorist
00:05:12militias are considered
00:05:16areas outside the state's control, and therefore, consolidating the lines of confrontation
00:05:19means reproducing the model in Sudan, which is one state with
00:05:23two systems, which is practically a path to having
00:05:27two states, dividing Sudan. Practically,
00:05:30this is the direct outcome, whether for the truce.
00:05:34That's why the state's leadership's position
00:05:37of standing against all international pressures, which
00:05:41sometimes reach very high limits
00:05:44that are not known, related
00:05:47to threats of direct military intervention.
00:05:51I think it is a historical, national,
00:05:55and very courageous position, frankly, to reject the truce. And the last
00:05:58position, whether from the head of the Sovereign Council or the deputy head of the Sovereign Council,
00:06:02he said it clearly that the American truce
00:06:05proposal is a proposal to divide Sudan, and he said we are against
00:06:09it, and it is rejected by us. And this is a position that
00:06:12will be remembered by the Sudanese people.
00:06:15So the Quintet here is
00:06:18a facilitator. It is a facilitator for dividing Sudan. It
00:06:22is a facilitator for trying to produce a distorted
00:06:25political process that leads to legitimizing the division
00:06:28of Sudan. Instead of us talking about us
00:06:31being one state and one Sudan,
00:06:34they want us to sit for 15-20 years so that
00:06:37after 20 years, they will talk to us about unifying the institutions of
00:06:41the occupied areas. These areas will turn
00:06:44into a breeding ground for gangs, mafias,
00:06:47and drugs, and all forms
00:06:51of soft
00:06:55or indirect threats to the Sudanese
00:06:59society and the Sudanese nation living in the
00:07:02مناطق الدوله ده حقيقه الدايرينه اللي فشلوا
00:07:05to achieve with the swift war on April 15
00:07:08by storming the General Command and the guest house. They want
00:07:12to achieve it through years. The goal now is to perpetuate the state of exception.
00:07:16Doctor, returning to your first point,
00:07:19last time they refused to deal
00:07:23Quintet because there are parties
00:07:27within the Quintet that are actually opposed
00:07:30to division. However, they themselves
00:07:33are subject to pressure, pressure from the United States
00:07:36and conflicting interests within the European Union. I believe
00:07:39that there is also something
00:07:45that if you don't review the structure, these
00:07:48people won't be able to analyze all of this.
00:07:52In addition to the Quintet, they want a restructuring of
00:07:55the political process. They said they want it to have three pillars. Yes,
00:07:59the Janjaweed said their allies and the non-aligned
00:08:02parties, the non-aligned ones,
00:08:05and the armed forces and their allies, so that
00:08:08they have a mechanical majority, because they are two in one.
00:08:27And all of this Sudanese political spectrum is completely excluded
00:08:29from any vision. So besides being a vision
00:08:33that threatens the unity of Sudan and the security of Sudanese people, it is also
00:08:36an impractical and unrealistic and unrealistic
00:08:40and unacceptable vision. This is fundamentally about Doctor.
00:08:43Correct. Ahmad, from your words, I infer that just as those people told
00:08:47us, "Either the framework or war,"
00:08:50and when the army and the Sudanese people rejected
00:08:54the framework and chose war, now they are telling us,
00:08:57"Either we enter a political process for the political scene
00:09:01or we divide Sudan." I mean, do you agree
00:09:04that this is the equation presented now? I mean, either a political
00:09:08process that includes the militia, or the militia returns
00:09:11with it. I always remember the words of Muhammad Al-Faki
00:09:14Suleiman, you remember, he said this recently. He said, "We are ready
00:09:18to return to a political process that includes the armed forces
00:09:22and the militia clearly." He said this a few
00:09:25months ago. This is the vision. So, Ahmad,
00:09:29and another one from Ahmad Al-Faki
00:09:32Suleiman's group was interviewed yesterday on the enemy's channel, Sky News
00:09:36Abu Dhabi. I mean, this is another scene, another one
00:09:39happening on the hashtag. Yes, that Abu Dhabi
00:09:43is escalating its media war and has started hosting a group
00:09:47of those Qahat groups who have become based in Abu
00:09:50اصبحت مقره في ابو
00:09:53their studios after they used to be hosted remotely
00:09:56as politicians and independent analysts and so on. Now they are
00:09:59sitting there, I mean, this issue is going
00:10:02to make them
00:10:05have a regular program, of course. They made a regular program, I mean, a weekly
00:10:08regular program called "Sudan's Fates." But people, let's sit down, but Doctor,
00:10:12I think that what you said is
00:10:15exactly the reality. These
00:10:18people's bargaining with the Sudanese
00:10:21people and their bargaining with the Sudanese state is
00:10:25either submission, and this is what Hafez Kabir said before,
00:10:29when they occupied
00:10:31Khartoum, that the Sudanese people either submit to us
00:10:35or we will continue what we are doing. These are the choices.
00:10:38And as one of
00:10:42the Sudanese women
00:10:45said, they do not know the Sudanese people. When
00:10:48you put the Sudanese people before such choices, their choice
00:10:52is that resistance is more honorable,
00:10:55and resistance is better, and resistance is braver. And we
00:10:59have a history in resisting colonialism
00:11:03and resisting foreign invasion. That's why I always, when I take
00:11:06this issue, when I go up to 30,000 feet,
00:11:10what is happening now, Doctor, is the third colonial attack in
00:11:13our history. The first attack was in the 19th century,
00:11:17and the second attack was the Anglo-Egyptian
00:11:21condominium, and now this is the third attack, truly. I mean,
00:11:29when we review
00:11:31the core reasons for the invasion
00:11:35by the Khedive's
00:11:38invasion in 2021 or the British
00:11:42campaign or these modern Tatars
00:11:45and their supporters in Abu Dhabi and mercenaries from all over
00:11:49the world, it is truly an attack because they don't
00:11:52want Sudan to realize its value
00:11:56so that we can then try to rebuild
00:12:00a strong Sudan that truly
00:12:04the region as a force
00:12:07the region. They don't want all of this, and the economic
00:12:09uplift
00:12:12the region, they don't want that. These people are still currently
00:12:16a point of whether it is steadfastness and of course, necessarily by them
00:12:20establishing a plan to try to perpetuate the state
00:12:23of exception. I mean,
00:12:27Sudan, there have been military coups
00:12:30partly driven by political
00:12:34forces undermining the armed forces, and partly
00:12:37by personal ambitions and adventures.
00:12:40The successful ones, of course, were those driven by political forces. This is well known.
00:12:44But, Doctor, at least the officers who
00:12:47carried out the failed coup attempts,
00:12:50when their coup failed and they knew it failed,
00:12:54they were brave enough to go
00:12:57and face the consequences of their actions.
00:13:01Not one of them started a war. Not one of them turned
00:13:05the coup into an attempt to devour
00:13:08the state, to displace Sudanese, and to exterminate
00:13:11Sudanese. Right? adventure failed,
00:13:15took responsibility for his decision and everyone with him,
00:13:19and with courage. I think that this itself shows us that what
00:13:22we were exposed to on the morning of April 15 or on April
00:13:2611, 2023, is something completely separate from the history
00:13:29of Sudan. It is a new matter related to the nature of advanced
00:13:33generation wars, which use all military, social,
00:13:36diplomatic, and political
00:13:39tools to try to subjugate Sudan, and media tools.
00:13:42Yes, and therefore, these
00:13:46people here in this project are the ones who are stirring the pot, and
00:13:49their main goal is that either Sudan grants
00:13:53them what they failed to achieve with weapons,
00:13:57and they roam the whole world saying no, this is a Kizan war, this is not
00:14:00an aggression war against Sudan. Right. Well,
00:14:03Ahmed, regarding the Arab League,
00:14:06the Arab League decided to participate,
00:14:09as you mentioned earlier, via
00:14:13video conference in a meeting with the political
00:14:16wing of the militia and the Abu Dhabi regime,
00:14:19ولنظام ابو ظبي لكن
00:14:23the group that
00:14:26legitimizes the militia. Is this a difference
00:14:29in assessments within the Quintet, or
00:14:33could it start to disintegrate because
00:14:36of direct involvement
00:14:40with the entity dividing Sudan? This is
00:14:44the African Union, or rather, the African Union Commission,
00:14:47led by Ambassador Mohamed Ali Youssef. And the Arab
00:14:51countries, and the Arab countries' position has evolved beyond all
00:14:55other blocs and organizations,
00:14:58because it is in a position
00:15:02where it can weigh
00:15:05the issue of Sudan and the sovereignty of Sudan.
00:15:08And its position has been evolving since 2023.
00:15:12I mean, the last statement issued by the Secretary-General of the League
00:15:16of Arab States, Nabil Fahmy, a few
00:15:19days ago, I mean, he issued a statement
00:15:23that not only shows solidarity but also
00:15:26mentions that the Sudanese state has stood firm
00:15:30in the face of enormous challenges, and not only
00:15:34that, but it was able to move
00:15:36from that steadfastness to try to restore services and allow the return
00:15:40of millions of Sudanese from displacement
00:15:43and refugee areas. So, with regard to the unity of Sudan and the sovereignty
00:15:47of Sudan, the Arab League has an interest
00:15:50because the Arab
00:15:54states, whether in Africa or in other regions in the Arab
00:15:58East, there is the legitimacy
00:16:01of states, there are those who dispute it in
00:16:05a number of Arab countries. So, not
00:16:08adopting a clear and strong position
00:16:12on the unity of the Sudanese state and the sovereignty of the Sudanese state
00:16:15and the legitimacy of its national institutions and the necessity of protecting them
00:16:19not only puts the Arab League leadership in a contradiction,
00:16:21but also opens the door wide to
00:16:25what will not end well. So I believe that just as the African
00:16:28Union constantly affirms the unity of Sudan
00:16:31and rejects parallel entities, the Arab League has
00:16:34higher incentives because it is also
00:16:38looking at the tense Arab situation, which has
00:16:41a very big escalation, and it is trying
00:16:46these meanings in a clear way. Here we can see
00:16:49that its position regarding attending
00:16:52the Quintet's meeting,
00:16:55which was scheduled with the terrorist
00:16:58entity of al-Tasees, yes. And
00:17:01the way of attending with Sumood, of course, all of this in the end,
00:17:05Doctor, I believe that
00:17:07the Quintet will not go
00:17:11far because Sudan has reservations about it
00:17:14and its way of external political process and its connection to the Quartet.
00:17:18I believe that the internal intrinsic problems themselves
00:17:21will not allow the Quintet to move forward. May God
00:17:25turn their plots against them all. I mean,
00:17:29they conspire against Sudan, but by God's will, we will overcome this
00:17:32ordeal. Thank you very much, Professor Ahmed Shamakh,
00:17:34the political researcher, our political
00:17:39Sudan today. Thank you. Dear viewers, after a short break, we will open
00:18:40Welcome back, dear viewers. Defeats open
00:18:44the doors to division. Has
00:18:47from within? Pressure is mounting on the Rapid Support Forces militia,
00:18:50while defeats are accumulating
00:18:53on the battlefields. The circle of defections within
00:18:56its ranks is widening in a scene that goes beyond individuals leaving to
00:19:00groups, or groups to indications of
00:19:03cracks affecting the structure of the leadership and cohesion.
00:19:07And trust between the fighters and their leadership. From
00:19:10calls for surrender that were made by some of its affiliates
00:19:14to the departure of leaders and combat groups announcing their
00:19:17secession from it, fundamental questions arise about what
00:19:20is happening within the militia and the reality of its cohesion and the future
00:19:24of its ability to continue in light of the escalating military
00:19:28and political pressures. Are we facing scattered
00:19:31defections imposed by the circumstances of the field, or the beginning
00:19:34of internal disintegration where defeats interact
00:19:38with the leadership crisis and declining trust? And what do these
00:19:41developments reveal about the militia's relationship with its fighters
00:19:43and supporters? An internal reading of the causes of the rift
00:19:48report.
00:19:54The militia has been subjected to
00:19:59defections, and these defections have shaken
00:20:02the sponsor's trust and puzzled
00:20:06that the signs of victory had appeared in
00:20:09the militia's sky, so he began to call
00:20:12on the army to surrender. But the facts on the ground exposed
00:20:16his agency, and leaders in the militia
00:20:19began to defect from it, fleeing as
00:20:23from an epidemic. And only a few hours
00:20:26passed, and the militia's
00:20:29and thus the sun rises every day
00:20:32to expose the shame of the militia and its supporters
00:20:36from every virtue. It is firmly established that the national
00:20:39state remains, defying conspiracies
00:20:42and rising with the cohesion of its children above
00:20:45the wounds.
00:21:15file is very important in light
00:21:18of the field developments. As we see the armed forces
00:21:22advancing in wide areas
00:21:27the militia, and at the same time,
00:21:30the number of those who defect from it is increasing,
00:21:34which is a clear indication
00:21:37has begun to disintegrate. This is what the leadership
00:21:40of the armed forces has been talking about during the past
00:21:43period, that it is managing this battle with a clear strategic
00:21:47mind that deals with the facts
00:21:50on the ground and also
00:21:53understands the nature of the formation of this
00:21:55criminal militia.
00:21:58And perhaps these facts are what
00:22:03important development
00:22:07an issue worthy of discussion in this episode.
00:22:10There are a number of scenes that we will watch
00:22:14the discussion on this topic.
00:22:17We are watching Major General Mohamedin Ismail Ahmed, Deputy
00:22:21Chief of Staff of the Administration of the Sudanese Liberation Forces Alliance
00:22:25with the Rapid Support Forces militia, what is called the al-Tasees alliance.
00:22:28Today, I officially announce
00:22:30my defection with a number of officers, non-commissioned
00:22:34officers, and soldiers, and our return to the homeland and our joining
00:22:38of the Sudanese Armed Forces under the umbrella of the general amnesty
00:22:42approved by the President of the Sovereign Council, the Commander-in-Chief
00:22:45of the Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Abdel Fattah
00:22:48Al-Burhan. This decision comes from several
00:22:51factors, the first of which is our rejection of war crimes, displacement
00:22:55of people, rapes, and looting that
00:22:58were practiced by the leaders of the Rapid Support Forces, specifically Ali Dagalo, who
00:23:01swallowed the Rapid Support Forces and wanted to swallow Sudan
00:23:05as well, with foreign instigation and conspiracies. However, God's will
00:23:09and then the steadfastness of the Sudanese army and people thwarted all
00:23:12those plots. Secondly, we believed
00:23:16that we were defending a cause, but by God, we found no cause,
00:23:20nor did we find any right. Rather, we found
00:23:23ourselves in the ranks of the people of falsehood and dishonorable
00:23:27deeds. And after we were sheikhs who honored guests
00:23:30and helped the distressed, we became followers of traitors and thieves.
00:23:34Thirdly, by God, these crimes and disgraces that happened are not from
00:23:37our morals or our customs, and we became ashamed
00:23:40of ourselves. Brothers, they deceived us and claimed
00:23:44that they are the people of change and are seeking justice, but through
00:23:48their practices, it was proven that this is not true, and we found nothing but
00:23:51destruction, death, and ruin, starting from our people
00:23:54in Darfur and all parts of Sudan. And praise be to God,
00:23:58we left today and returned to the homeland, and we salute the efforts
00:24:01of all the leaders and our brothers who preceded us in returning to the homeland,
00:24:04and we thank their contribution to our return. And the most important thing I want
00:24:08to say today, on my behalf and on behalf of all
00:24:10my comrades, is that we ask forgiveness from all the Sudanese
00:24:14people because we stood on the wrong
00:24:17side, but by God, we were deceived. But praise
00:24:21be to God, we did not commit crimes or violate the sanctity
00:24:24of citizens or do anything, and we were rejecting
00:24:28injustice. Praise be to God. We are confident
00:24:31of our innocence, and betrayal is not our way, and indeed, God does not guide
00:24:35the plots of traitors. One last word
00:24:37we say to Commander Lieutenant General Al-Burhan, by God,
00:24:41we are ready and awaiting your instructions
00:24:44to move until we cleanse the country of the evils
00:24:48of Hamdan Dagalo's sons.
00:24:52And you will only find us in front of you, defeating and wiping
00:24:56out all criminals. And say, "Act, for Allah will see
00:25:00your deeds, and His Messenger, and the believers." Almighty Allah
00:25:02has spoken the truth. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. An important statement to the Sudanese
00:25:06nation. Allah says, "Whoever kills a soul without
00:25:09[just cause of] murder or mischief in the land, it is as if he had killed all mankind.
00:25:13And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved all mankind." O great Sudanese people,
00:25:17my family, my children, my patient countrymen. In every
00:25:20inch of our beloved land of Sudan,
00:25:23I address you today in these critical moments
00:25:27of our nation's history, after a sincere self-reflection
00:25:30and deep contemplation of the state of our country
00:25:33as a result of this absurd war that has destroyed crops
00:25:37and generations, displaced millions of innocent people from
00:25:40their homes, and shed pure blood that should have been preserved
00:25:44to build this nation. Based on that,
00:25:46I, Lieutenant Colonel
00:25:50Mohammed Azraq Al-Fanjari, Commander of the Rapid Support Forces Special
00:25:53Task Force, announce my defection and abandonment
00:25:56of all military duties and responsibilities within the ranks of the Rapid
00:26:00Support Forces militia, and my full alignment with the sanctity of Sudanese
00:26:03blood and the option of peace. I declare my complete
00:26:07innocence before God and before the Sudanese people from
00:26:10any violations or transgressions against unarmed citizens
00:26:14in their lives, property, or honor. I affirm that
00:26:17our position today is a purely ethical and national
00:26:21position. I extend my sincere apology to every Sudanese family
00:26:25that has suffered harm, displacement, or loss during this war. I ask Almighty God
00:26:29to spare the blood of all the children of Sudan, and I sincerely
00:26:32appeal to my comrades-in-arms in the ranks of the Rapid Support Forces militia
00:26:36to review themselves and raise the voice of truth and reason,
00:26:40for this war has no cause and no future. Therefore,
00:26:44we must all return to the bosom of the homeland and unite behind our
00:26:47armed forces, for I am a sincere advisor to you. Stop shedding the blood of your brothers
00:26:51and sisters, for the homeland is big enough for all of us. We ask God to protect
00:26:55Sudan and its people and to hasten relief and safety throughout
00:26:58our country. And peace be upon you and God's mercy and blessings.
00:27:23Those were statements
00:27:27to... Thank you very much for the invitation. Greetings to the viewers of Sudan
00:27:30TV through you.
00:27:33What is happening in the Rapid Support Forces militia of
00:27:36defections, of course, these people who
00:27:39defected and the defection is still
00:27:42ongoing, they are not
00:27:45soldiers and they are not political
00:27:48citizens. These
00:27:51are leaders, senior
00:27:55on the front lines, leading military
00:27:58operations on the ground. And therefore,
00:28:02we assess whether the Rapid Support Forces militia
00:28:06is of the same strength or less.
00:28:09So, the departure of these field
00:28:11commanders, their assessment of the battle
00:28:15is that there is now a superiority of the
00:28:20the Rapid Support Forces, and the Rapid Support Forces military cannot on the ground
00:28:23confront the armed forces. And
00:28:27therefore, they decided to escape
00:28:31from this ship that is about
