Sudan's army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has vowed to push on with his fight against the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, despite a US visa snub to attend the UN General Assembly and mounting pressure for a ceasefire. RFI spoke to a Sudanese researcher about why such a step was taken and how far the stand-off could go.
The US decision, taken last week, was reportedly meant to pressure General Burhan into accepting a three-month truce with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
