Sudanese give UN envoy, UAE’s ambassador 72 hours to leave country

UAE's ambassador to Sudan, Hamad al-Jenini

KHARTOUM, May 06 (YPA) –Sudanese citizens on Saturday gave UN envoy, Volker Peretz, and the UAE’s ambassador to their country, Hamad al-Jenini, 72 hours to leave the country, describing their role as destructive to Sudan.

On Thursday, large numbers of angry Sudanese surrounded the residence of the two ambassadors in Port Sudan, demanding that they leave the country.

A video clip showed the gathering of large numbers of Sudanese demanding the expulsion of the Emirati ambassador and the UN envoy.

Sayed Abu Amna, the political secretary of the Supreme Council of Beja, a leader in the Red Sea state, said: “Peretz’s mission, for which he was sent, is to help us as Sudanese in the democratic transition, and not to force us as an independent people and a sovereign state to accept the solutions he proposes.”

Abu Amna confirmed that the citizens want Peretz to leave Port Sudan immediately, in eastern Sudan, pointing out that the matter is also related to the Emirati ambassador.

This is not the first time that the Sudanese have expressed their anger at the practices of the Emirati ambassador.

Earlier, a clip showed thousands of Sudanese trampling pictures of the Emirati ambassador in the Red Sea state.

This coincides with the discovery of new evidence documenting the support provided by the UAE to the Rapid Support Forces, led by Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo (Hamedti), in their ongoing fight against the Sudanese army forces.
