Darfur Governor Warns of Tribal Arms Threat
The Governor of Darfur, Minni Arko Minawi, rejected the formation of militias or "security forces" outside of the state structure, warning that the proliferation of military formations and the transformation of tribes into independent powers threaten Sudan's unity and deepen divisions. He called for reform of military and police institutions, advocating for their integration under a single legal framework. He also emphasized that security arrangements should focus on reforming and restructuring military institutions, maintaining that the actual monopoly of weapons by the army is fundamental to stability. Minawi urged postponing political dialogue until the conditions are suitable for the free participation of all societal components. He warned that any ceasefire should not be exploited to perpetuate division, stressing the importance of protecting civilians and ensuring their return to conflict areas. Furthermore, he pointed out the presence of foreign fighters within the Rapid Support Forces, estimated at around 60 individuals. He underscored the importance of strengthening national sovereignty and preventing the establishment of parallel institutions. He called for a comprehensive solution to the crisis that creates an appropriate environment for dialogue and restores national unity, while appreciating the efforts of international and regional bodies involved in the internal situation.
