Sudan’s Foreign Minister-designate, Hussein Awad, issued a strongly worded statement on Saturday, condemning the statements of his Chadian counterpart, which denied his country’s support for any party in Sudan.

Awad stressed in his statement that these statements “do not reflect the brotherly Chadian people”, considering them an attempt to deny despite the existence of “clear evidence” of Chad’s support for the Rapid Support Forces.

The statement referred to accusations that Chad passed weapons and property looted from Sudan through its territory, while mentioning the arrival of military vehicles to Chad through the Cameroonian port of Douala, and their alleged destination for the “terrorist” militia through Chad.

Awad said in the statement that these statements refer to Chad’s interference in Sudan’s internal affairs, describing them as disregard for the victims of genocide committed by a rebel militia in El Geneina, near the border with Chad.

Awad called on the Chadian government to “return to its senses and stop fueling war and horrific violations” against the Sudanese people, stressing that whoever sets fire to Sudan will not be immune from it.

The Sudanese minister’s statement concluded by recalling the strong historical relations between the two brotherly peoples and the need to adhere to the principles of good neighborliness and international law.
