Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Sudan\u2019s army and politicians are edging closer to a new power-sharing deal as international efforts intensify to reverse last week\u2019s coup, according to people following the talks.<\/p>\n

Negotiations between the coup leader, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, former rebel groups and ousted Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok continued Tuesday in the capital, Khartoum, a United Nations spokesperson said. Although there\u2019s been progress, key differences are said to remain and an outcome isn\u2019t guaranteed.<\/p>\n

The Oct. 25 overthrow of the civilian-led government derailed a political process that was a rare bright spot in the Horn of Africa region bedeviled by dictatorship and conflict.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they will reach a conclusion very soon,\u201d Imad Adawi, the former chief of staff of Sudan\u2019s military, said from Cairo after being briefed on talks by senior members of the army. \u201cThere are many facilitators, including Sudanese actors, South Sudan, African countries and the UN.\u201d<\/p>\n

Global condemnation of the putsch was swift, with the U.S. and World Bank cutting aid to pressure the military into releasing Hamdok and his detained colleagues. The U.S. had been cultivating new ties with Sudan following the 2019 ouster of long-time dictator Omar al-Bashir in mass protests, rescinding its 27-year listing as a state sponsor of terrorism.<\/p>\n

Diplomats have said that al-Burhan sees the involvement of Hamdok, who\u2019s still under house arrest and has his interactions controlled, in a new administration as key to winning credibility. Sudan had been ruled by civilian and military figures in an uneasy arrangement since 2019.<\/p>\n

Greater Powers One proposal under discussion would see Hamdok given greater powers but with a new cabinet more palatable to the army, the people said, requesting anonymity because they aren\u2019t authorized to speak to the media.<\/p>\n

The army, in control for much of Sudan\u2019s history since independence in 1956, would be in charge of the government\u2019s powerful security and defense councils under the deal, the people said. The formation of a new sovereign council, the top executive body headed by al-Burhan until he said he was dissolving it, is still being discussed, according to the people.<\/p>\n

The army and politicians are at odds over the cabinet appointments component, the people said, describing a deal as still elusive. The UN special representative said Monday \u201cthe contours of a package would become visible\u201d in coming days. Army representatives didn\u2019t respond to phone calls seeking comment.<\/p>\n

The U.S. special envoy for the Horn of Africa, Jeffrey Feltman, said Tuesday the army knows support for Sudan\u2019s economic development and debt relief, as well as World Bank and International Monetary Fund financing, depend on restoring the democratic path.<\/p>\n

Feltman said he was surprised by the coup, which happened hours after he\u2019d left Sudan having tried to mend military-civilian ties. Asked if the army deceived him, Feltman said: \u201cI wouldn\u2019t go so far to say they lied. What I would say is they seemed to be talking to us in bad faith.\u201d<\/p>\n
