Lieutenant General Abdelfattah El Burhan has expressed readiness to cease hostilities in Sudan under certain conditions, including the RSF’s withdrawal from occupied territories. He affirmed Sudan’s support for the Palestinian cause and outlined plans for political transition, emphasizing the formation of a civilian government and preparation for inclusive dialogue and elections.
Lieutenant General Abdelfattah El Burhan, commander-in-chief of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and chairman of Sudan’s Transitional Sovereignty Council, stated at an Arab Summit in Cairo that he is prepared to cease hostilities if specific conditions are met. This announcement follows a firm declaration of Sudan’s unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, including backing for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
El Burhan emphasized Sudan’s commitment to Arab diplomatic efforts aimed at safeguarding Palestinian rights and aiding Gaza’s reconstruction without displacing its residents. Addressing internal matters, he noted that Sudan is actively working to restore stability in regions previously controlled by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which he accused of perpetrating significant violations against citizens and acting on foreign interests.
He reiterated that military operations would cease immediately, on the condition that the RSF withdraws from occupied areas, ends the blockade on El Fasher, and assembles in designated locations for disarmament. Furthermore, El Burhan outlined a roadmap for civil and constitutional transformation, which advocates for a civilian government led by independent professionals and promotes an inclusive dialogue aimed at facilitating free and fair elections.
El Burhan concluded by expressing gratitude to countries that support Sudan, notably recognizing the contribution of Arab nations and the League of Arab States in promoting Sudan’s stability and national unity. Radio Dabanga has solicited the RSF’s perspective regarding El Burhan’s statements.
In summary, Lieutenant General Abdelfattah El Burhan has signaled a willingness to halt military operations in Sudan contingent upon the withdrawal of the RSF and fulfillment of specific conditions. His commitment to the Palestinian cause and the promotion of a roadmap for civil governance highlights Sudan’s priorities. El Burhan’s acknowledgment of regional support reflects a broader diplomatic aim to secure stability and unity within the nation.
