Abstract

Undoubtedly, the geographical characteristics, the ethnic diversity of the Sudanese people, and the great social class inequality left its direct impact on the orientations of Sudanese foreign policy. Also, the succession of Sudanese regimes, whose ideological orientations and nature in governance and administration vary between civil, democratic, pluralistic, and totalitarian military, increased the phenomenon of political instability in Sudan.

The matter that made the process of making an independent external political decision very difficult in light of the country’s need for regional and international aid and assistance, especially since Sudan’s foreign orientations are greatly affected by what is happening to its nine Arab and African neighbors, because it shares with them inherited border problems, as well as political, racial, and ethnic problems. Thus, the Sudanese foreign political decision-maker must deal with high political and diplomatic realism when taking any external decision regarding his country to be compatible with the common interests of the countries of the region.
