Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has hailed a new economic deal with the United Arab Emirates as a way to “attract billions of dollars in investments into Canada.” The $50 billion agreement — $70-billion in Canadian dollars — was announced as Carney travelled to Abu Dhabi in November for talks with Emirati leaders, and comes as Canada attempts to diversify its economic partners as it contends with effects of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs. “We’re building big things, and the UAE wants to build with us,” the Canadian leader said in a social media post about the pact.

Sudan’s War, UAE Gold, And The Rise Of Anti-Imperialist Alliances

Even as the U.S. empire’s gaze is turned towards Venezuela, it continues to meddle in Africa. Foreign intervention is fueling a bitter civil war in Sudan, the Trump administration is pushing a line about a genocide against Christians in Nigeria, with an eye on military intervention, and across the Sahel region, anti-imperialist forces continue to rise and organize, dreaming of a united, pan-African continent that will resist American imperialism and reject Israeli colonization. Joining MintCast host Mnar Adley today to talk about the continent is Ahmed Kaballo. Ahmed is a British-Sudanese journalist and the CEO and co-founder of African Stream, a media outlet shut down by the U.S. government for publishing inconvenient truths.

Let The Sudanese People Walk Toward Peace

November 14, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. Educate! Genocide, Rapid Support Forces (RSF), Sudan, Wars and Militarism

In early November, United Nations (UN) Secretary-General António Guterres addressed the ‘horrifying crisis in Sudan, which is spiralling out of control’. He urged the warring parties to ‘bring an end to this nightmare of violence – now’. There is a path to end the war, but there is simply no political will to enforce it. In May 2025, we wrote about the history of the conflict. In 2019, we explained the uprising that took place that year as well as its aftermath. Now, from Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, the International Peoples’ Assembly, and Pan Africanism Today, comes red alert no. 21 on the need for peace in Sudan.

Across Africa and the world, progressive and popular organizations are raising their voices in solidarity with the people of Sudan, as they face one of the most brutal and protracted conflicts in the world today. From Ghana to South Africa, from international networks to grassroots movements, the message is unified in a call to end the massacres, open humanitarian corridors, and uphold the Sudanese people’s struggle for justice, peace, and sovereignty. Amid mounting international condemnation for its war crimes, especially over the last several weeks, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have reportedly agreed to a three-month pause in the fighting.

El-Fasher’s Fall: A New Chapter in Darfur’s Ethnic Cleansing

The capture of El-Fasher, North Darfur, by the United Arab Emirates (UAE)-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on October 26, 2025, marks a catastrophic turning point in Sudan's civil war and signals a chilling continuation of the region's decades-long pattern of ethnic cleansing. With over 260,000 civilians trapped in the besieged city, the fall of the Sudanese Armed Forces' (SAF) last major stronghold in Darfur has immediately led to horrifying reports of mass executions, widespread displacement, and the deepening of a humanitarian crisis already considered the world's worst. El-Fasher is more than just a capital city; it is the historic capital of the Darfur Sultanate and a critical gateway connecting Sudan to Central and West Africa.

UAE Funnels British Weapons To Sudan Militia Committing Genocide

October 29, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. Educate! Britain, Genocide, Report, Sudan, Wars and Militarism, weapons

UK weapons and military equipment supplied by the UAE to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) are being spotted on the Sudanese battlefield, according to a 28 October report by The Guardian. The report cites two dossiers of documents, which have reportedly been seen by the UN Security Council. Small-arms target systems and personnel carrier engines made by London are among the equipment being found in Sudan, the report says. The report has also highlighted the UK’s role in fueling the Sudan conflict. “Months after the UN Security Council first received material alleging that the UAE may have supplied British-made items to the RSF, new data indicates that the British government went on to approve further exports to the Gulf state for military equipment of the same type,” The Guardian notes.

Sudan’s People Are Rebuilding Their Capital Without Government Help

On a scorching morning in Al-Kalakla, southern Khartoum, Mohammed Rizq stood among rubble with a notebook in his hand, directing dozens of volunteers half his age. The 21-year-old high school student with metalworking training pointed toward a broken water station, its generator stolen by Rapid Support Forces during the paramilitary’s occupation of Sudan’s capital. He divided the group into teams: clear the rubble, salvage usable bricks, dig trenches to repair pipes the RSF had destroyed. “When I rebuild my neighborhood, it feels like I am rebuilding my life from the ground up,” Rizq says, standing where his elementary school once stood before artillery reduced it to debris.

US Policy On Sudan Hurts Civilians Rather Than Warring Factions

June 29, 2025 Zeina Mohammed and Ragad Babiker, Scheer Post. Educate! Africa, Sudan, Trump Administration, Wars and Militarism

As the war in Sudan enters its third year, experts, activists, and other community members say recent U.S. foreign policy is hurting, not helping, civilians. This month, the Trump administration banned Sudanese nationals, in addition to 11 other nationalities, from entering the U.S., a couple of weeks after the administration imposed sanctions on the country, claiming the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) used chemical weapons in their fight with Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Both moves, experts say, have drastically reduced resources and mobility for civilians at the center of the world’s worst humanitarian crisis more than they hinder the competing armed forces. As of this April, nearly 13 million people have been displaced, according to the United Nations Refugee Agency.

The International Monetary Fund Underdevelops Africa

May 23, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Educate! Africa, Debt, Economic Instability, International Monetary Fund (IMF), Sudan

At the start of 2025, Sudan registered an alarming debt-to-GDP (Gross Domestic Product) ratio of 252%. This means that the country’s total public debt is 2.5 times the size of its entire annual economic output. It is not hard to understand why Sudan is in such dire straits: as we outlined in last week’s newsletter, the country has been engulfed in a conflict for decades, which has severely disrupted any possibility of economic growth and financial stability. Yet, in a way, Sudan – one of the richest countries in terms of resources but poorest in terms of household income and wealth – is also representative of what has been happening on the African continent.

Iran’s Military Presence In Sudan: UAE-Israel Plot Backfires

April 16, 2025 Robert Inlakesh , MintPress News. Educate! Iran, Israel, Sudan, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Wars and Militarism

The United Arab Emirates and Israel had hoped to extract strategic victories in Sudan, taking advantage of the fall of the nation’s former dictator and the descent into civil war. But newly released satellite images suggest that Tehran’s renewed ties with the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) may be unraveling those ambitions. Satellite images, initially reported by Russian state broadcaster RT, reveal an extensive underground tunnel complex under Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) control, allegedly constructed with assistance from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

The Tears Of Our Children

January 3, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Educate! Children, Palestine, Premature Death, Sudan, Trauma, Wars and Militarism

A scientific study from 2017 found that deep childhood traumas can mark a person both physically and psychologically. Trauma reroutes children’s developing nervous systems, causing them to be highly alert and anxious even decades later. This process, the authors write, generates a mechanism called ‘enhanced threat processing’. No wonder studies of children who lived through earlier wars show that they disproportionately suffer from medical conditions, including heart ailments and cancer. In March 2022, five doctors from Afghanistan, India, Ireland, and Sri Lanka wrote a heartfelt letter to The Lancet in which they reminded the world of the plight of the children of Afghanistan.

Resist, My People, Resist

December 27, 2024 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Educate! Africa, Class Struggle, Gaza, Genocide, Israel, Palestine, Poverty, Sudan, Wars and Militarism

Pain shudders through the arteries of global society. Day after day passes by as the genocide against the Palestinian people continues and the conflicts in the Great Lakes region of Africa and Sudan escalate. More and more people slip into absolute poverty as arms companies’ profits soar. These realities have hardened society, allowing people to bury their heads and ignore the horrors unfolding across the world. Ferocious disregard for the pain of others has become a way to protect oneself from the inflation of suffering. What can one do with the wretchedness that has come to define life across the planet?

The West And Its Media Are Complicit In Sudan’s Crisis

November 4, 2024 The Canary. Resist! Humanitarian Crisis, Media, Sudan, United Kingdom (UK), Wars and Militarism

Youth-led grassroots organisations London for Sudan, Cardiff For Sudan, Manchester For Sudan, and Madaniya are organising a nationwide demonstration in London, Cardiff, and Manchester to demand accountability for the devastating war on civilians in Sudan. Titled “Hands Off Sudan: End Western Complicity and Inaction,” this protest is a direct response to the silence surrounding one of the most gravest humanitarian crises of our time. The mobilisation aims to pressure the UK government to take accountability for its role in prolonging the conflict and to call out other international players, including the US, for their involvement in the atrocities.

Biden’s UNGA Address On Democracy, Cooperation Contrasts With Reality

When US President Biden ended his final address to the UN General Assembly with “my fellow leaders, there is nothing that’s beyond our capacity if we work together,” it can be easy to forget that the United States is the number one obstacle to mutual cooperation around the world. Biden’s mention of the various conflicts and aggressions around the world—from Ukraine to Sudan to Gaza—of course made no mention of the US’s complicity in each of these conflicts. Biden calls for “a ceasefire and hostage deal” for Gaza in order to “bring the hostages home, secure security for Israel, and Gaza free of Hamas’ grip, ease the suffering in Gaza, and end this war.”
