Press Statement

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs follows with keen interest and appreciation the successive international positions rejecting any threats to the Sudan's sovereignty, unity and the existing national legitimacy through a plot to form an authority in the name of the Janjaweed militia and its affiliates, fomented in Kenya under the supervision of the regional sponsor of the militia.
In this regard, the Ministry commends the principled and strong positions expressed by Egypt, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, and the African member states of the Security Council: Algeria, Somalia, and Sierra Leone, as well as the positions of other member states, including Russia, China, the United States, the United Kingdom and Guyana, as well as the statement issued by Türkiye.
These clear positions affirm that the Kenyan Presidency's irresponsible stance in embracing the genocidal RSF militia, seeking to legitimize its unprecedented atrocities is isolated both externally and internally. This, however, places Kenya in the category of a rogue state that defies international norms.
The Ministry renew its to call to all members of the international community and regional and international organizations, especially the African Union, to condemn this grave threat to regional peace and security and the tampering with the well-established principles of the international order.

Press Statement

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomes the statements by spokesperson for the Secretary-General of the United Nations in which he communicates that Mr. António Guterres is deeply concerned at the announcement by the RSF-the Janjaweed genocidal militia- and its affiliates of a so-called “political agreement” to establish a “government authority” in RSF-controlled areas.

The Secretary-General cautioned that this escalation “risks further entrenching the crisis”. “Preserving Sudan’s unity, sovereignty, and territorial integrity remains crucial for the sustainable resolution of the conflict and for achieving long-term stability both within Sudan and across the wider region”, Mr. Guterres stresses.

Last week, at the onset of the meetings between the militia and its affiliates, under the sponsorship of the Kenyan presidency, the UN Secretary-General warned that the formation of a parallel government would exacerbate the crisis. His latest statements reaffirm his unequivocal and principled stance on this matter.

The Ministry equally commends the position expressed by the General Secretariat of the League of Arab States towards disapproving of any measures that could undermine Sudan’s unity or expose it to division or fragmentation under any pretext or designation.

Also worthy of praise are the strong and consistent support expressed by several brotherly nations, including the Arab Republic of Egypt, the State of Qatar, and the Federal Republic of Somalia.

The Ministry reiterates its call to international and regional organizations, as well as to all nations, to reject the said dangerous course of action followed by the Kenyan presidency, which not only jeopardizes regional peace and security but also constitutes a blatant violation of Sudan’s sovereignty.
