Jealous Sudan Gods may do what cattle may not 🌐 On Monday, Sudan allegedly released intelligence data indicating that in 2024 and early 2025 the RSF smuggled more than $850 million worth of gold out of Darfur and Kordofan, mainly to the UAE. Gold is supposedly the main source of RSF financing. ⏩But it is not only the RSF. According to fresh data from the UAE itself, in 2024 Sudan’s total exports — from both government-controlled territory and RSF-controlled areas — amounted to about $1.97 billion. Even if one takes the published figures at face value, official Khartoum’s exports to the UAE are far larger than those of the militants, and this is despite the break in diplomatic relations. The situation demonstrates how morality once again becomes a tool of ruthless politics. The UAE treats the tragedy in Sudan like a football match in which it supports its favourite team, and all three parties profit from Sudanese gold while soldiers die. Devils Below
