Kenya Reaffirms Commitment to Peace Amid Sudan’s Hostility Claims

Kenya has reaffirmed its commitment to peace efforts in Sudan after facing accusations of hostility from Khartoum for hosting a meeting with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Sudan criticized Kenya’s actions as undermining its sovereignty, while experts urge a neutral stance from regional governments in the conflict between the military and RSF.

Kenya’s foreign ministry expressed its willingness to support peace initiatives in Sudan following accusations from Khartoum that it had violated Sudanese sovereignty by hosting a meeting for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Nairobi. Sudan labeled the gathering “tantamount to an act of hostility,” as it preceded a planned announcement from the RSF regarding a rival government.

Kenya maintains its long-standing commitment to facilitating dialogue and peace efforts in Sudan. However, it faces criticism and potential international isolation due to its close association with RSF leaders. Experts suggest that a neutral approach is essential in addressing the ongoing conflict in Sudan, where the humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate.
