Guests in the episode of "Beyond the News" read the statements of the head of the Transitional Sovereignty Council in Sudan, Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, and his deputy, the commander of the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan. The reading of the statements varied between those who considered them a mere "tactic" in the context of their management of the war.

The researcher at the Khartoum Center for Dialogue, Al-Rasheed Al-Mu'tasim, said that it is not possible for the army to accept negotiations with Rapid Support Rebels.
