الملخص EN

The aim of this paper is to throw light on one of the complicated proplems in the modern history of the Sudan as it deal with last phase of the Condominium regime and each party was trying to secure its interests.

The role of the National Movement was determintal as it tried to make use of the contradicting stands of the parties .

The paper revealed steps followed by the political parties despite their differences and positive results were achieved.

By the end of the Second World War 1945 the Middle East witnessed a new era as a conflict was in progress between the great powers to dominate the area whth Egypt having a central role and this can only be achieved with the agreement with the Egyptian government.

And this can only be done by settling the Sudan Question in a way satisfactory to Egypt.

At the same time Egypt realized that there is a chance to restore her lost rights by calling Britain to revise the Treaty of 1936 after expiry of ten years as one of its terms specified.

Britain agreed reluctantly and the round was a failure in 1946.

Another round was held in the premises of the Security Counci whenEgypt called for British withdrawal from the Nile Valley in1947 but with British allies in the Council Egypt achieved nothing .

A third round was “khashaba – Campel’ which was a failure .

A fourth round was held on the coming of the second ministry of Mustafa al- Nahas in19501951- which was determental to Egypt as al-Nahas declaed the abolution of the Covenant of 1899 and the Treaty of 1936 unilaterally withen the parliament .

During these negotiations a third party was always present that was the Sudan national movement which was divided between two factions an independence front supported by the administration and the unity front cagghng for the unity of the Nile Valley and naturally supported by Egypt.

to an extent the failure of the negotiations was considered a victory to the admistration in the Sudan as steps went in progress to put the Sudan in the road of independence backed by the government in London .The Sudan ruled by a Condominiun faced various problems which need further investigation by reseachers .
