On the geopolitical significance of this conflict, I would say a couple of things.
First is its location in north Africa. It's a region that experiences its own instability for a variety of reasons. Another country experiencing this kind of de-stabilizing effect has the potential for it to spill over into its neighbours, which are often experiencing their own challenges with regard to resilience.
What happens then, of course, is that these mass movements of individuals create significant humanitarian concerns and significant migrant issues. I think our like-minded countries in Europe might be quite concerned about migration issues into Europe.
Further, any ungoverned spaces are bad for countries like Canada. Ungoverned spaces are places where terrorists and criminals can thrive. What we're seeing in Sudan is a vast area with no effective government.
