Follow along with me now. This is not complicated. Russia reached a tentative agreement with the Government of Sudan to build a base for the Russian Navy on Sudan’s coast. Yet the media claims that Moscow is behind the current counter coup by the Rapid Security Force aka RSF, which is trying to replace the Government that reached the agreement with Russia. Not one word about the United States activities there. Here is one example:

The Russian mercenary group Wagner has been supplying the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group in fights against the Sudanese army, according to CNN. Okay. Let us review some other key facts reported by the media:

Sudan has been without a parliament since a popular uprising forced the military overthrow of longtime autocrat Omar al-Bashir in April 2019. The country has been mired in political chaos since an October 2021 military coup derailed its short-lived transition to democracy.

11 February 2023 — Sudan’s ruling military concluded a review of an agreement with Russia to build a navy base on the Red Sea in the African country, two Sudanese officials said Saturday. They said the deal was awaiting the formation of a civilian government and a legislative body to be ratified before it takes effect.

The agreement allows Russia to set up a naval base with up to 300 Russian troops, and to simultaneously keep up to four navy ships, including nuclear-powered ones, in the strategic Port Sudan on the Red Sea. The base would ensure the Russian navy’s presence in the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean and spare its ships the need for long voyages to reach the area, according to Viktor Bondarev, the former Russian air force chief.In exchange, Russia is to provide Sudan with weapons and military equipment. The agreement is to last for 25 years, with automatic extensions for 10-year periods if neither side objects.

Ah, Larry Johnson, one of Ray McGovern VIPS crowd that promoted the sweet-tea-swilling former US ambassador the Gabon, Joe Wilson, and his Global Zero super Cooper deep cover CIA wife...

[Round Earther]

It is possible that the United States, Western Europe, Saudi Arabis South Sudan, Egypt and Israel thought it might not be optimal to have a Russian Navel base in the Red Sea.

[Telepathic Intruder]

The western media do whatever the neo-Marxists tell them.

[piasa]

Same reason they are not pushing stories on Russia in Sudan.

Instead the media promotesstories about cute animals, etc.

"Why Is the Western Media Ignoring the U.S. Role in Sudan? "

They ignore it because Obama first sent them there in 2016.

“So why would they support a coup to overthrow a government that had agreed to allow Russia to build a naval base in Sudan on the Red Sea?”

According to the American ruling regime, Russia just might. After all, they blew up their own pipeline(Nordstream).
If that is true, I guess I would believe the Russians would support such a coup.

[lowbridge]

Same reason they ignore all of Biden’s blunders. To protect their boy.

[qaz123]

Well the US did make South Sudan out of thin air

"Vladimir Putin and Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov are neither stupid nor insane. So why would they support a coup to overthrow a government that had agreed to allow Russia to build a naval base in Sudan on the Red Sea?"

Because Moscow wants a foothold in Africa and is playing all sides against each other. Not too long ago, these actions would be understood for what they are.
