Moatinoon
Moatinoon asked artificial intelligence about its expectations for the outcomes of the Quartet meeting, which will include, in addition to the United States, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and the Arab Republic of Egypt, and is scheduled to be held in the next two days.
The Quartet meeting on Sudan, scheduled for Washington on July 20, 2025 (not the 29th, as some reports have suggested), is anticipated by many diplomats and observers, hoping to launch a stronger and more effective peace process. The following are the most prominent expectations and outcomes expected from this meeting:
Expected outcomes:
Launching a new US peace initiative. During the meeting, a new plan drafted by the United States is expected to be unveiled, including:
Mechanisms for activating the ceasefire
Political tracks for negotiation between the conflicting parties
Conditions for enforcing implementation and ensuring the basic rights of citizens
Announcing a joint Quartet political statement, with the participation of the United States, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Egypt, emphasizing:
The parties commitment to a comprehensive political settlement
Integrating regional initiatives such as the Jeddah Platform within the Quartet framework
Preventing the infiltration of external powers such as Iran or Russia to exploit the chaos in Sudan
Activating the Jeddah Platform as a unified framework:
Supporting the idea of making the Jeddah Platform—launched by Saudi Arabia and co-hosted by regional parties—the sole focus for consolidating the ceasefire and political implementation, supported by clear Quartet resolutions, and possibly transforming it into a binding mechanism through a UN resolution.
Civilian integration and Sudanese civil society engagement to avoid the dominance of the military or international community alone in the political process.
Support comprehensive participation of civil society actors:
Human rights organizations
Multiple political forces
Representatives of ethnic groups and marginalized regions
Unified humanitarian and political support:
A call to accelerate the delivery of humanitarian aid through reliable mechanisms
Ensuring the protection of civilians and relief personnel
Promoting joint development initiatives to achieve administrative and political security
Important background:
Egypt has officially replaced the United Kingdom in the Quartet, due to Londons declining role and Cairos increased presence and regional coordination on the Sudan issue.
Previous meetings, such as the Jeddah Platform and the independent IGAD efforts, failed to achieve tangible results due to regional fragmentation and disagreements over participation and coordination.
Why is this meeting different?
The existence of a new quadripartite coordination mechanism that includes regional (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE) and international (the United States) actors
The opportunity to integrate multiple initiatives (Jeddah, IGAD, and the Quartet) into a unified framework
Increasing international and UN pressure to stop the war, highlighting the major security and humanitarian risks that loom if no effective and urgent action is taken
Conclusion
The Quartet meeting in Washington is expected to seek to:
Announce a new US peace initiative
Issuing a unified quadripartite political statement
Integrating the Jeddah Platform into a joint and binding implementation plan
Promoting Sudanese inclusiveness within the political negotiations
Accelerating humanitarian and security efforts
