The Rapid Support Forces’ growing regional outreach could shift Sudan’s conflict map and strengthen its battlefield position.
Cameron Hudson underlined that RSF’s diplomatic outreach abroad changes balance of power inside Sudan.
He cited a recent visit by RSF commander Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo to Uganda as a key example.
Hudson, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, said hosting Dagalo also shifts regional states from their positions to the conflict.
Sudan has been at war between the General Abdel Fattah al Burhan’s army and the RSF since April 2023.
