A senior spokesman for Sudan’s Founding Alliance, known as TASIS, said the Peace Government does not seek Sudan’s partition and is instead working to build a civilian-led alternative capable of restoring services, security and political legitimacy in areas outside the control of the Port Sudan junta.
Ahmed Tugud Lisan, a leading figure in the alliance, is expected to address the Peace Government’s political roadmap, its position on ceasefire initiatives, the future transition, education, public services and the alliance’s campaign against remnants of the former regime in a wide-ranging interview.
The remarks come as TASIS seeks to answer accusations from its opponents that the Peace Government represents a separatist project. Tugud Lisan is expected to reject that charge, saying separation is not part of the Peace Government’s agenda and that the alliance’s aim is to rebuild Sudan on new foundations after years of military rule, centralization and Islamist domination.
His comments are likely to be closely watched because they come amid growing debate over whether Sudan can still be governed from Port Sudan, where the SAF-aligned authorities remain heavily dependent on former regime networks and Islamist factions accused by their rivals of prolonging the war.
TASIS has presented the Peace Government as a civilian and administrative response to the collapse of state institutions, arguing that communities in Darfur, Kordofan, Blue Nile and other war-affected regions cannot wait for the Port Sudan authorities to restore basic services or deliver a credible transition.
The interview is also expected to touch on education and examinations, an increasingly sensitive file as millions of Sudanese children and students remain trapped by war, displacement and institutional collapse. TASIS officials have repeatedly framed the reopening of schools and universities as part of a broader struggle to prevent the war from destroying an entire generation.
Tugud Lisan is also expected to address the alliance’s position on the National Congress Party and Islamist networks, which TASIS leaders accuse of hijacking the SAF and blocking any genuine peace process. The Peace Government has pushed for a harder political and legal line against former regime actors, including those accused of financing or directing the war.
