https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/2f38b907-ff5e-4cc4-8b68-f4bbfa3e2f8a As the Sudan war enters its fourth year, an MEE investigation shines light on why it’s still happening. Ethiopia is covertly supporting Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Forces - or RSF - from a national army base near the western city of Asosa. This is despite Ethiopia’s Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed - pictured here with Sudan’s leader - claiming neutrality in the war. And it’s part of a wider web of international collusion in lucrative, illegal trades through Sudan that have displaced millions and protracted the biggest humanitarian crisis in the world. The Sudan war is a people’s revolution hijacked, and a civil feud compounded by extraterritorial interests. Money. Geopolitics. Ethnic hate. MEE's Mathilda Mallinson is joined by MEE journalist Oscar Rickett, and Sudanese activist Ameen Mekki. Support stories that matter.
