In the west, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) are close to imposing total control over the entire Darfur region. From a geopolitical standpoint, the Darfur region has borders with eastern Libya, which is governed by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, the ally of General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, or Hemedti, and the region is also bordered by Chad and Central Africa. "There will be no Libyan scenario in Sudan," says Dr Mahamat Ali Kalyani. For his part, Sudanese political analyst Muhammad Torshin also rules out any repetition of the Libyan scenario in Sudan, but for different reasons. Hemedti could formulate understandings with armed movements in Darfur, but he will not do so "because any alliance of this kind clearly means the end of these movements,” he added.
