President Donald Trump is moving to solve one of Africa’s most devastating conflicts, vowing to bring an immediate end to the ongoing civil war in Sudan. This war, raging since 2023, has caused mass displacement, forcing nearly 12 million people from their homes. Trump’s involvement marks a powerful shift in the U.S. role as a peacemaker.
The President announced a new, decisive approach to stop the fighting between Sudan’s national army and the paramilitary group, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). He is leveraging the power of his office to secure a quick resolution.
Trump’s plan is rooted in strong regional alliances and a pragmatic, transactional approach to diplomacy. He will work directly with partners including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt to pressure the warring factions.
The request for U.S. intervention came directly from key Arab leaders. This move is designed to stabilize a region where conflict and displacement have spiraled out of control.
Trump has already stated that the war is destroying a “Great Civilization and Culture” that needs to be fixed. His administration has “already started working” on the issue, signaling urgency and commitment.
The international community hopes this new effort, driven by American power and regional coordination, can finally force a permanent ceasefire. Trump is demonstrating that true American leadership means delivering peace where others have failed.
