Abstract
- This article discusses several political issues. The Anglo-Egyptian agreement on the Sudan, signed in Cairo on February 12, is undoubtedly an Egyptian victory, a victory made possible by its unequivocal retreat from previous demands for Egyptian sovereignty over the Sudan. For the British view this was moving altogether too fast, but the enthusiasm aroused in the Sudan by the Egyptian move left no alternative to acquiescence. And in the subsequent negotiations over the details of the transfer of authority the British relinquished most of the "safeguards" they had originally asked for.
