Sudan’s Foreign Minister-designate, Hussein Awad Ali, announced on Tuesday that his country does not mind the resumption of Jeddah talks, stressing Sudan’s commitment to these talks.
Awad Ali explained that the success of any future dialogue requires a commitment by the Rapid Support Forces.
He stressed that the city of Jeddah is an important platform for Sudanese talks, adding: “We will not allow another platform for dialogue to destroy the platform for dialogue in the city of Jeddah.”
The minister-designate stressed that the Sudanese government has opened all crossings for humanitarian aid and has not obstructed or closed them.
For more than a year, Sudan has been mired in a conflict between the military, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, which has killed thousands of Sudanese.
The minister pointed out that all international efforts so far have not succeeded in urging the conflicting parties to negotiate directly to reach a political solution that returns Sudan to its democratic path and stops the war.
The minister stated that the negotiations, which took place in Jeddah in March 2023, resulted in a joint declaration agreed by the warring parties to cease fire, bring in aid, and withdraw from some hospital sites. However, he pointed out that those pledges have not been fully implemented, and confrontations between the two military forces have continued to date.
The conflict has pushed the country of 48 million people to the brink of famine, destroyed already fragile infrastructure and displaced more than 8.5 million people, according to the United Nations.
