Sudan and Israel announce normalization after repeated Sudanese denials
As soon as normalization between Israel and Sudan became a reality, after weeks of official Sudanese exile, the battle began between the Sudanese political parties at home, over the gains and losses of the measure, and whether the speech delivered by officials from the transitional government, with its military and civilian sides, to the Sudanese street. About the benefits of normalization, was it the complete truth or was it a speech full of fallacies?
Two opposing teams
Both politically and popularly, Sudan is divided into two parties, as the first of them is firmly opposed to normalization and believes that it will not be a solution to Sudan’s problems, and that the transitional government that currently governs Sudan does not have the powers to enter into such important agreements.
This team considers that those who press for normalization with Israel are the parties that currently govern Sudan, and that only the first beneficiaries are the generals, who need external coverage, and this team considers that this side, which pushed towards normalization, issued the Sudanese make a false and exaggerated speech. On the deterioration of the economic situation in Sudan, and that the solution will only be through normalization with Israel.
On the other side is another team, who believe that normalization with Israel will achieve Sudan’s interest, especially with regard to the advancement of the economy, and this team considers that normalization with Israel is a door that will open Sudan, the path of cooperation with the international community, and at the level of military partner in the Sudanese transitional government. Most generals believe that the crisis in Sudan has no end except with the return of the international community, and that, in the face of US pressure, a return to the international community will only take place through normalization with Israel.
Fears that threaten the coalition
Amid fears expressed by some that the decision of the Sudanese transitional government to threaten normalization with Israel, the political agreement that led to the sharing of power between the army and civilian forces in the country, various parties and forces Politicians, some of them partners in the Sudanese ruling coalition, and some outside the coalition, declared their complete rejection. For the decision to normalize relations with Israel.
Reports indicate that strong reactions from various parties, some within the coalition and others outside it, paint a turbulent picture of the expected relationship with Israel, in light of the popular division towards the decision. The National Consensus Alliance, which is one of the partners of the ruling coalition, announced The “Communist Party”, the “Arab Socialist Baath” and the “Nasserita” include their resounding rejection of normalization, in a statement issued on Friday 23 October.
For its part, the Sudanese National Umma Party rejected the normalization decision, and the party’s political bureau said that “the decision to normalize relations with Israel represents a milestone in the clarification of actions committed outside the jurisdiction of the transitional government. “. It violates the constitutional document, committing to carry out procedural and practical steps, without specifying its nature.
Observers consider that so far sources of internal reactions towards Sudan’s decision to normalize relations with Israel, and despite what its supporters say, that it will achieve many economic benefits for Sudan, by going through the Israeli gate, in the direction of The opening to the world, threatens to lead to a state of instability of governance in the country, in light of damaging the unity of the ruling coalition, according to reports indicate that some of its components reject the normalization decision, in addition to the rejection of forces outside the ruling coalition, the most important of which is the Popular Congress Party.
Lasseril benefits
On the Israeli side, the Israelis list the benefits they will reap from normalization with Sudan, and from expanding the normalization area with Arab countries generally, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu summed up all of this, in statements that followed. to the normalization announcement with Sudan, saying that the peace accords with the UAE So far, Bahrain and Sudan have been good for “security, heart and pocket,” as he said, adding that more Arab countries will join the road of standardization.
Speaking about the benefits of normalization with Sudan specifically, Netanyahu said the rapprochement with Khartoum would open up benefits for the Israelis, who cross the Atlantic, adding: “We are now flying west, over Sudan, in accordance with the agreements we made. even before announcing normalization, and on Chad, which we have established. ” He also has relations with her, with Brazil and South America. “
In addition to what Netanyahu spoke, the strategic and security benefits Israel will reap appear to be very numerous. By establishing diplomatic and security relations with Sudan, Tel Aviv will become familiar with activities that it considers terrorist or hostile to it, in areas adjacent to Sudan, such as Chad, Mali and Niger. For the greatest strategic benefit, which is to completely banish Sudan from the Iranian alliance.
As for Sudan, many observers believe that the benefit will be limited to opening doors for it to cooperate economically with the world’s financial institutions, after its name has been removed from the US terrorism list, this adds to the possibility that Khartoum uses advanced Israeli technology in the field of agriculture in a way that contributes to increasing agricultural productivity. And the diversity of crops, given that Sudan has large tracts of agricultural land.
