Egypt Daily News – The Sudanese Sovereignty Council announced the sending of a delegation from the Sudanese government to Cairo, to discuss the government’s vision in implementing the Jeddah Agreement.
According to a statement by the Sudanese Sovereignty Council on its official Facebook page: Based on contact with the American government represented by the American envoy to Sudan, Tom Perriello, and a contact from the Egyptian government requesting a meeting with a government delegation in Cairo to discuss the government’s vision in implementing the Jeddah Agreement, the government will therefore send a delegation to Cairo. For this purpose.
The Geneva talks are now taking place with the aim of stopping the war in Sudan. They were launched last Wednesday with Egyptian participation, American and Saudi sponsorship, in the presence of the African Union and the United Nations.
In a related context, the head of the Transitional Sovereignty Council in Sudan and the Commander of the Armed Forces, Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, announced that the American administration had agreed to one of their demands to hold a meeting that would bring them together alongside Saudi Arabia to discuss the implementation of the Jeddah Declaration signed between the army and the Rapid Support Forces.
He explained that after three contacts with the American side, we insisted on not attending the Geneva negotiations unless the Jeddah Declaration was implemented.
He stressed that the American administration agreed, via a letter, to a meeting with a delegation headed by the army, and continued, “But we will send them a delegation from the government to meet them with Saudi Arabia, as they are sponsors of the (Jeddah Declaration) to discuss the steps to implement the declaration after we delivered to them our vision in this regard earlier.”
Al-Burhan pointed out that the Jeddah Declaration obligates the Rapid Support Forces to leave the homes of citizens and civilian objects in the states of Khartoum, Al-Jazira, Sennar, and Darfur, and there will be no retreat from that, and if they refuse, we will continue to fight them to remove them by force, as he put it.
