Saudi Arabia hosts talks between representatives of Sudanese parties to conflict

WORLD, May 06 (YPA) -Riyadh and Washington confirmed in a joint statement that talks between representatives of the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces will take place on Saturday in Saudi Arabia.

In the statement, the United States and Saudi Arabia welcomed the “start of preliminary talks” in Jeddah between representatives of the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces.

The statement urged both sides to “seriously engage” in these talks to reach a “ceasefire and end the conflict.”

It is worth mentioning that the American and Saudi sides have managed more than once to reach a humanitarian truce agreement in Sudan.

Clashes erupted between the Sudanese army led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the Rapid Support Forces led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo on April 15, and the countries evacuated their missions and nationals from Sudan.
