The civil war in Sudan between General Al Burhan vs. General Hemedti should end soon. Sensibly, if both of them want to bring Sudan into a civil-democratic state then the sispair should continue to peace. Historically, both have the loyalty of the Sudanese people. Al Burhan is a career general, while Hemedti was a loyalist of President Omar Al Bashir when Al Bashir formed a paramilitary force against the rebels. Loyalists are supposed to be loyal to the interests of the people.
But in politics, loyalty to the community is not necessarily loyalty to the leader. When both were involved in the coup against President Al Bashir, there was a shifting of loyalties from the personal (and even the state too) to the big idea government, which is democracy. Today, the civil war is damaging many sectors, including the wider society they are supposed to protect & fight for. There is mass displacement, and Sudan is becoming an increasingly unstable country. In fact, they have to build their country.
In my opinion, the sispair step should be continued with a peace agreement between the two then followed by a joint agreement to prepare for democratic elections. This is the most reasonable choice so that the people do not become victims, and the country does not deteriorate further. The question of who will be the leader is of course left to the applicable mechanism. However, the important point is how war is ended, peace is achieved, and common interests are made the goal for once again, the benefit of the nation.
