Minister of Foreign Affairs Ambassador Dr. Ali Yousuf Ahmed Al-Sharif, participated in the 18th Ministerial Meeting of the Regional Ministerial Committee of the Great Lakes Organization, which was held on Sunday in the Angolan capital, Luanda, with the participation of the Foreign Ministers of the Great Lakes Organization.
The Minister delivered a speech at the meeting during which he expressed his thanks and appreciation to the Republic of Angola for hosting this important meeting.
Foreign Minister explained that the meeting came at a critical moment as the Great Lakes region faces challenges in the areas of peace and security, in Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Central African Republic, which requires close cooperation between the member states to address these challenges.
Meanwhile, Dr. Al-Sharif referred to Sudan's support for the Luanda process led by the Great Lakes Group of States to normalize relations between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, which works in coordination with the Nairobi process led by East African countries for peace in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
Foreign Minister commended the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region for condemning the rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia in its extraordinary summit statement on Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo held in Angola, which called for the insurgent RSF militia to be clearly condemned and designated a terrorist group due to the unprecedented atrocities it committed against civilians since the beginning of the war.

Al-Burhan Praises Russia's Supportive Stances towards Sudan and its Issues at International Forums
The President of the Transitional Sovereignty Council, Gen. Abdul-Fattah Al-Burhan, has praised the Russian position supporting Sudan in the UN Security Council, noting that the government is working in harmony with Sudan's friends.
Addressing the opening session of the First Economic Conference in Port -Sudan on Tuesday, Gen. Al-Burhan expressed Sudan's disapproval of the draft resolution that was voted on, noting that the resolution, from its inception, has undermined Sudan's national sovereignty. He pointed out that the decision did not include any condemnation of the outlaws militia, nor any condemnation of the violation of the national sovereignty, nor any reference to the supporters of the outlaws movement. He expressed Sudan's rejection of any solutions that come and are imposed from abroad because they are failed solutions, referring to some international experiences that have proven the failure of external solutions, as happened in the Arab Spring countries. He stressed that the solution to this crisis is to eradicate the militia and to stop its continued presence in the civilian homes and the service and civil facilities.
