The Sudanese civilian cabinet headed by Prime Minister, Dr Kamil El-Tayeb Idris, has recently laid down before the United Nations Security Council Session, its general outlines for achieving peace in the country.

The session,convened at the request of the Government of the Sudan, on 22nd of December 2025, was fully devoted to the issues of peace and the development of the situation on the ground.

The outlines of the peace plan which the Sudanese prime minister, Idris, named“ The Peace Initiative of the Government of Sudan”, consists of five main points: -

An Introduction,
Fundamental Steps Towards Peace in the Sudan,
Confidence Building Measures,
Reconciliation and Social Peace Conferences, and
The Political Process

The Sudanese Prime Minister Dr. Kamil El-Tayeb Idris, addressed
The session where he underlined that history will not remember the complexity of this conflict; it will remember whether the world acted while action was still possible.

Idris underlined that the Peace Initiative of the Government of Sudan, which he submitted before the UN Security constitutes a clear test of our collective resolve:” a ceasefire that can be monitored, a disarmament process that can be enforced, a justice system that is not selective, and a reconciliation that is not superficial.”

He also made it clear that the initiative affirms a simple and enduring truth:“there can be no peace without accountability, no stability without a single national authority, and no future without healing. Sudan seeks neither impunity nor an endless war; it seeks a just peace, grounded in law and safeguarded by the international community.”

He expected the initiative to mark the moment when Sudan stepped back from the precipice, and“when the international community stood on the right side of history”, he said, adding” Let this Council be remembered not as a witness to collapse, but as a partner in recovery”.
He reminded the council that Sudan today stands at a decisive moment in its history a moment when the silence of arms can either be delayed by hesitation or secured by courage.“Our nation has paid an unbearable price in human lives and in the tearing of its social fabric. Cities have been reduced to ruins, families forced into exile, and hope itself placed under siege.”

Idriss has stressed that the Sudan Peace Initiative as presented to the council was actually born not of illusion, but of necessity; not of victory, but of responsibility.“It is a deliberate choice to replace chaos with order, violence with the rule of law, and despair with hope.”

He further added that, grounded in international principles, complementary and synergistic with the Saudi American Initiative, and shaped by painful experience,“this initiative offers a realistic, enforceable, and inclusive framework to protect civilians, end atrocities, restore state authority, and open the door to national reconciliation”.

The Prime Minister, Dr Kamil Idris, made it clear that“ Sudan does not ask for sympathy alone; it asks for partnership to guarantee peace, justice, and the dignity of its people. Our initiative is an internal solution -- it is not imposed upon us. This is not about winning a war; it is about ending a cycle of violence that has failed Sudan for decades.”
