Ethiopia and Sudan are showing renewed signs of stronger cooperation, as the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) emerges as a possible problem for both. The new reality check could now upend any suspicions the leaders of the Sudan Sovereignty Council may have harboured against Ethiopia, which had been initially seen as profiting from the same sources that have benefited the RSF.
This week, however, Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed arrived in Port Sudan, the tentative capital of the military junta in Sudan during this wartime. Walking hand-in-hand, Abiy and Gen Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan spoke of cooperation to deal with common challenges.
