"Gheit said on Wednesday that the 22-member league backed the recently unveiled initiative, which calls for a ceasefire and global monitoring of the conflict, commending its highly important political, humanitarian, and security messages and calling for positive engagement with the plan. Idris, who heads Sudan's transitional civilian government, had stressed to the UNSC on Monday that the government's proposal was homemade, rather than imposed on us an indirect reference to truce"
"Al-Basha Tibiq, adviser to the commander of the RSF, which agreed to the Quad's proposal for a humanitarian truce back in November, rejected Idris's plan, saying that the notion of the group withdrawing was closer to fantasy than to politics. In an RSF statement posted on Facebook, Tibiq was quoted as saying that the plan was nothing more than a recycling of outdated exclusionary rhetoric that was indistinguishable from the position taken by Sudan's military chief General Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan."
Ahmed Aboul Gheit said the Arab League backed a peace initiative presented by Prime Minister Kamil Idris that calls for a ceasefire and international monitoring. Idris emphasized that the government's proposal was domestically developed and contrasted it with truce plans backed by the Quad of the United States, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the UAE. Idris demanded the withdrawal, confinement and disarmament of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), warning a truce would fail otherwise. RSF adviser Al-Basha Tibiq rejected the proposal as fantasy and recycled exclusionary rhetoric, aligning it with the position of military chief General Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan, who had earlier rejected a Quad truce citing alleged UAE bias.
