| Abstract | ||
| This study analyzes the conflict in Sudan from the outbreak of the Sudanese revolution in December 2018 until the end of 2022, with a focus on its implications for Egyptian national security, During this period, Sudan experienced major political and security transformations, including the fall of Omar al-Bashir’s regime, the formation of a transitional government, rising tensions between civilian and military components, and increasing regional and international interventions that complicated the situation, The importance of this study lies in examining the impact of these developments on Egypt’s water security related to the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, the security of shared borders, as well as the economic and security repercussions of instability, The study adopts the descriptive-analytical and strategic approaches, with a comparative dimension to analyze the positions of key actors, It aims to assess Egypt’s strategies in dealing with the Sudanese crisis and to explore possible future scenarios for Egyptian national security in light of either the continuation of the conflict or the achievement of a comprehensive political settlement. The results suggest that the ongoing conflict in Sudan (20182022) was a direct menace to the national security of Egypt, especially in the realms of water and border security, which resulted in the implementation of the calculated noninterventionist policy and selective involvement in efforts to maintain stability in the southern region of the country. | ||
