This week, Dr. Andreas Krieg will join The Thinking Muslim to unpack the UAE’s complex involvement in Sudan’s ongoing turmoil and the ascent of the notorious Rapid Support Forces (RSF). He will explore how regional power politics, covert support networks, and geopolitical ambitions have shaped the conflict, empowering the RSF and deepening Sudan’s instability.
