Sudan's Ex-PM: Civil war a 'failure of elites' | DW Conflict Zone

[@Ricko_o3]

As a Sudanese at the beginning of the war, I did not think that I was biased towards any party in the conflict, but with the passage of time, I saw what the Rapid Support Forces did in terms of mass killing, looting, and systematic rape in any land they entered. I sided with the army with everything I had (despite our disagreement with it on many points). In the end, it is the national army and not just mercenaries who know nothing but killing. You should know that Dr. Hamoudek has become a hated figure among the Sudanese people because of the equality between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (although he does not disclose this directly).

[@umibrahimibrahim4966]

Thank you for stating facts as it's

[@بالسوداني-ص9ف]

too biased according to your own statement. you're being brainwashed. let's be honest, atrocities and horrors have and will always take place in all wars according to history. had your national army been as concerned about the safety of civilians as you claim it was, then it would have taken the many opportunities of peace making offered rather than opting for the continuity of this mad and baseless war. you only telling lies and no truth

Why is he yelling at one of the only guys trying to achieve peace saying “he is making no progress”, this is ridiculous.

[@yousifkamal6487]

[@bawad9916]

Thank you Mr. Tam and Conflict Zone channel. Dr. Hamdok failed to answer difficult questions, and they are the same questions of the glorious December revolutionaries. You had everything in your hands and did nothing. Now we want to educate the Sudanese people about the importance of stopping the destructive war and not exonerating criminals from justice.

[@intrusive_thought_one]

It's amazing how the ex prim minister doesn't seem to be moved by the mention of our suffering. As the interviewer said he seems quite detached from the whole thing. Not to mention that he was outside Sudan most of his career

Aballa Hamadok is completely responsible for killing Sudanese innocent civilians by supporting Rapid supported forces and supported their killing activity,rapping women, steaing their material golds and he never condemned it but in fact he involved in political agreement with lead of Rapid support forces Hamadi . Therefore all Sudanese people strongly refused to acknowledge Hamadok to represent them as their Political leader

[@mohammedelaminali5793]

This interview is quite shameful, I feel so sad and ashamed to have seen this level of ignorance and irresponsibility coming from a man who not long ago was appointed a prime minister. It doesn’t even sound like an interview with a nation’s former PM , it sounds like an elder person conversing with a child. He’s not equipped with any facts, stats or even agenda that he stands for. He seem very hesitant to call out truth about both Burhan and Himidti being war criminals, and the obvious involvement of UAE in igniting and fueling this ongoing war. I am deeply ashamed our nation came to such level of weakness and failure that God reward us accordingly with a man from within us that reflects such. So sad and heartbreaking talk.

[@umibrahimibrahim4966]

What are Ukrainian mercenaries doing in Sudan?

[@irwindoprasetyo]

the russians are there. That's the short one.

[@The_Mones]

It's a bit complicated but I'll try to explain it to you as much as possible. When the violence began, the Wagner Group was supplying the rebel Rapid Support Forces with weapons in exchange for gold on the southwestern Sudanese border via its aircraft. Until the death of the group's leader, the supply to the rebel Rapid Support Forces decreased. On the other hand, the leaders of the Sudanese Armed Forces, by virtue of their relations with the Egyptian leadership, were receiving support from the Egyptian army by supplying them with pilots and fighter jets. Through Egypt, they were delivered to some Ukrainian leaders to train Sudanese fighters and pilots on modern urban warfare methods and drones. Currently, there is a presence of Ukrainian forces supervising the training and teaching of the forces, as I mentioned.

[@umibrahimibrahim4966]

​​@@irwindoprasetyo We have a legitimate government. According to war protocols, a government can seek military help from friend countries. As Nelsson Mandella said "Your enemy isn't necessarily my enmy" Ukrain is an old friend of Sudan.

Our problems in Sudan are not related to our past and the military coups., but from the weakness of our political civilian parties Abdalla Hamdoc failure to govern when he had the opportunity to do so is a living example .

As a former Prime Minister, I believe that interviews should foster a constructive dialogue rather than resemble an interrogation. While it's essential for reporters to ask tough questions and hold public figures accountable, the manner in which those questions are posed matters significantly. Respectful communication is crucial as it allows for a more meaningful exchange of ideas and insights. I welcome scrutiny but it should be conducted in a way that reflects the dignity of the office and the importance of the issues at hand. You can do better reporting!

[@ExcitedBeagle-on9ob]

What office? Mr Abdullah hamdukk wasn’t elected to this office but chosen

[@yaseentv1078]

Mr. Hamdock was the prime minster that was parachuted by outside forces to steer the civilian led government after a hard won stand off with the military junta that killed with cold blood hundred of demonstrating youngsters and threw their bodies in the Nile in front of the world TV cameras. He had an unprecedented mandate from the Sudanese people but he lacked the revolutionary spirit and acted as a civil servant instead of leader. He failed to raise the alarm early on for the revolution to fight back before the armed forces re-grouped and toppled his government.

[@umibrahimibrahim4966]

He resigned.

[@mohamedawad6691]

On a deeper perspective must all understand being elected to rule over a huge pile of resources surrounded by only frew of best type of humanoids is a great responsibility. It is a throne not a president seat Mr president. Thank you for trying and doing your best Mr. Hamdok

I liked the way Tim put the questions to Mr Hamdok, they are very hard straight questions that requires a real and transparent answers not diplomatic answers. I think has been following the other interviews for Hamdok with the other media houses and if you all noticed he asked the same questions in a different manner sounds harder as Hamdok answers from the previous interviews gave insufficient answers, he provided or answered more like a marketing for his front Taqadum but he gave no convincing answers with actions of how the far can be stopped. And gave an illusionist answer for foreign war fueler by giving no name to any. Sorry to say that but the man failed to give practical answers to the questions posed by Tim.

Problem of sudan in short , after the British occupation the literacy of the sudanese was declining and sudan was a geographical area which was determined by the GB .

So just like the beginning of the united states but with poverty and lack of political elites . And when you put these factors in a melting pot,,,, well u can see the result now

We have forgotten that there was a time different from today before WW2 and the formation of international order. Tim and the collective west seem to have amnesia about the horrors of colonial powers, slavery and plundering of human lives, countries and people for generations for the sake sugar, cocoa and tobacco. The scars of Colonialism and Imperialism hasn't gone away. They have damaged the psyche of these countries. If they see bullets being fired today - it's only because the healing hasn't happened. In the short term people are chasing power and wealth but the collective healing of a country can only happen after multiple decades of letting them be independent and helping them take baby steps towards democracy. In the storm term players will engage in fighting and power struggles. Left to their own devices, they will thrive again and with resilience they will be better for it. Again the trouble would be to judge a nation along western lines and our bias thinking. Let people be.
