I put in my own words some of my thoughts on the coup this week in #Sudan, why it happened, what it means, and what the US can do now to isolate spoilers and support protesters. A few points I hope start to get some discussion in policy circles: https://t.co/w7TaJvBHJR
➡️ Increase US support to pro-democracy protesters
➡️ Targeted sanctions against individuals undermining the transition and carrying out the coup and arrests/torture/killings
➡️ Consider amnesty deal to move the military out of power
➡️ Designate the RSF a Foreign Terrorist Group
The United States continues to stand with Sudan’s people in their nonviolent struggle for democracy. Sudan’s security forces must respect human rights; any violence against peaceful demonstrators is unacceptable. https://t.co/ArEE3G3OYE

If you're just joining us, here are the major headlines:

The Sudanese people DO NOT want a return of military rule.
How quickly can the world possibly forget?
From Dec 2018 all through 2019 we protested and died and our deaths were displayed on live TV & online -
and all that was so we could be free of military rule.

Emphasis on “since the June 3 attack”.
Reminder for everyone just joining us thanks to the celebrity rush - we’ve been at this since December 2018.

Happy to hear first day of #SudanCivilDisobedience has been successful yet saddened by the news of Waleed, who was shot and killed today after appearing in video telling officer they will continue to barricade the streets. May he be accepted as a martyr.
