Trump pushes for Sudan truce in Washington and gets Sisi to lean on Burhan

A renewed US-backed diplomatic push is underway to resolve the civil war in Sudan, with President Trump reportedly tasking Egyptian President Sisi to help end the conflict. Representatives from Sudan's army and the paramilitary RSF are in Washington for indirect talks, driven by US concerns over regional instability and arms trafficking. The negotiations, which also involve officials from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, aim to secure a humanitarian ceasefire. This effort signifies a more assertive American role in the conflict, which has displaced millions and threatens to destabilize the Horn of Africa.
