Sudan’s main political coalition on Monday presented its vision for a civilian-led administration to lead a transition to elections, an attempt to end an 11-month-old political impasse between the ruling military and pro-democracy groups.

A 2021 military coup ended a power-sharing partnership between the military and the Forces of Freedom and Change (FFC), derailing a transition to elections.

In a statement, the FFC presented its vision for what the coalition would seek in any future deal with the country’s military rulers.

In the proposal, the transitional government would include the participation of rebel groups who remained in government following the coup, political parties from outside the FFC who participated in writing a draft constitution, and union and protest groups.

Under the FFC’s vision, the military would exit politics and the country’s cabinet, while Sudan’s Sovereign Council, which had served as Sudan’s collective head of state, would be fully civilian and chosen by “revolutionary forces.”

A transitional parliament would include all parties and groups, excluding the NCP, and the arrangement would continue for up to two years before elections, it said.

The agreement would also allow for reform of the security sector and for a civilian-led “Security and Defense Council” headed by the prime minister and including representatives from the army and other security sector elements, the FFC said.

In an earlier statement on Sunday, the FFC criticized the detention of leading member Wagdi Salih, describing it as “purely political.”
