International Pressure and Sanctions as a Tool to Force the Opposing Forces in Sudan to Peace

Abstract

This article examines the impact of international pressure and the application of sanctions in the context of ethno-political conflict resolution in the Republic of Sudan. The author analyzes the effectiveness of international intervention in the settlement of the civil confrontation in the country and its influence on ensuring compliance with international norms and standards. Particular attention is paid to the role of the United States of America and international organizations in assisting in conflict resolution and preventing the country’s disintegration. Cases of unsuccessful sanctions in the context of the Sudanese conflict are analyzed, evaluating their impact on the opposing parties. Highlighting the inefficacy of external economic pressure on Sudan in perpetuating internal conflicts, the article suggests a comprehensive examination of factors influencing the effectiveness of international measures. It calls for collective efforts from the international community to facilitate transparent internal negotiations aimed at constructively developing reform provisions within the country.
