An existential battle of interests: what the Sudanese war is actually about
THE GUARDIAN
Almost everywhere I go, I am asked about Sudan. The questions are partly from concern for family and my birth country, and partly from a genuine desire to understand how the conflict there has turned into something so intense and seemingly unstoppable. This week, I break down what is happening in the country, and why it has escalated to catastrophic proportions. The first answer I give when asked about my thoughts on the war is always the same: I still can’t believe it is happening. Three years into the conflict, there is still a sense of incredulity that Sudan has unravelled so quickly. This is probably how it always feels to those whose countries have suddenly succumbed to war. To outsiders, war remains a story, a headline, a political event, and perhaps, particularly in Africa, not a remote or unexpected occurrence. But it is no one’s natural lot, and every day is as hard and bewildering as the one before.

A Roman emperor grovelling to a Persian king: the message behind a new statue in Tehran
THE CONVERSATION
A new statue unveiled in recent days in Iran depicts a Roman emperor in subjection to a Persian king. Erected in Tehran’s Enghelab Square, the statue titled Kneeling Before Iran shows the emperor grovelling before Shapur I (who ruled around 242–270 CE). The statue has been described as a symbol of national defiance following the American bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities in June. While Shapur’s victories occurred more than 1,700 years ago, Iran still celebrates them. The statue is clearly aimed at an internal audience following the American attacks. Only time will tell if it is also a warning to the west.
