The US, Saudi Arabia and the Emirates call for an “end to the military escalation” in Sudan

15 Apr. (EUROPE PRESS) –

Officials from the United States, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have called for the “end of the military escalation” in Sudan in reference to the serious clashes between the Army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since early this Saturday. .

The US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken; Saudi Prince Faisal bin Fahan al Saud and the United Arab Emirates Foreign Minister, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed al Nahyan, held a telephone conversation this Saturday.

In it, they discussed “the importance of ending the military escalation and returning to the framework agreement in order to guarantee the security and stability of Sudan and its brother people,” the official Saudi news agency, SPA, has published. .

Violent clashes between the Army and the RSF broke out this Saturday in Khartoum and other key cities in the country, although only three deaths have been confirmed so far.

These combats mean the failure of the negotiations for the return of a democratic government to Sudan that provided for the integration of the RSF into the Army.
