Diplomatic efforts around Sudan’s war gained further momentum after US envoy Massad Boulos met Sweden’s special envoy to explore possible paths toward peace.
The talks centred on expected diplomatic steps in the coming months aimed at supporting Sudan’s fragile political process and easing nationwide tensions.
According to the US State Department, both sides highlighted the need to block external military support from reaching Sudan’s rival forces.
The discussion came amid growing international concern that foreign backing is intensifying a conflict that has already devastated millions across the country.
Boulos and the Swedish envoy also reviewed Sudan’s worsening humanitarian crisis, where hunger, displacement and insecurity continue to deepen week by week.
They examined urgent relief needs and discussed ways to improve humanitarian access for communities cut off by fighting and collapsing public services.
The State Department said both delegations welcomed support from 22 countries and organisations backing principles agreed during a recent Berlin meeting.
Officials described this international backing as a key foundation for future diplomatic efforts to end the war and restore stability.
Sudan has been engulfed in conflict since fighting erupted between rival military factions, triggering one of the world’s most severe humanitarian crises.
