联合国苏丹过渡时期综合援助团团长福尔克·佩尔特斯称，苏丹交战双方已同意派出代表参加谈判，地点可能在沙特阿拉伯。如果会谈达成一致，将专注于确立一个由国内和国际观察员监督的“稳定可靠的”停火协议。不过他也警告称，举行谈判仍然存在挑战。
与此同时，尽管停火协议再次延长，但首都喀土穆及邻近的恩图曼等地仍然可以听到枪声和爆炸声。包括武装部队司令部、共和宫和国际机场在内的地区仍然有战斗发生。

The super secure UAE-based Telegram messenger service, developed by Russian-born software icon Pavel Durov, is looking to raise $1bn through a bond placement to a limited number of investors from Russia, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, the Kommersant daily reported citing unnamed sources on February 18, 2021.The issue reportedly comprises exchange bonds that could be converted into equity in the messaging service that is currently 100% owned by Durov and his brother Nikolai.Kommersant reports that the price of the conversion would be at a 10% discount to a potential IPO should it happen within five years.The minimum bond placement is said to be set at $50mn, but could be lowered to $10mn. Five-year bonds could carry an annual coupon of 7-8%.
