Hemeti seeks to polish international image and prepare presidential race

Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, the number two in Sudan's interim regime, is trying to polish his international reputation. His aim is to play down his links with Moscow and prepare for a possible presidential election battle with regime leader Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan.

Peace and security commissioner Adeoye urges AU to get more involved in fixing Sudan crisis

In a report to the African Union's Peace and Security Council, Bankole Adeoye has recommended the institution play a greater role in international mediation efforts to resolve the crisis in Sudan. So far these efforts have been led almost exclusively by UN Special Representative Volker Perthes.
