Vershinin stated the need to regulate the conflict in Sudan
On August 8, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Vershinin, at a meeting with Sudanese Ambassador to Moscow Mohammed Sirraj, announced the need to resolve the conflict in Sudan.
"The main focus was on the situation in Sudan, with an emphasis on the need to end the bloodshed in the country as soon as possible," the Russian Foreign Ministry's press service said on its official website.
Vershinin stressed that Russia adheres to the position of the importance of unity, sovereignty, integrity and achieving national accord in Sudan.
Russian-Sudanese relations were also discussed during the talks. According to the Foreign Ministry, the countries plan to expand cooperation in trade, economic and humanitarian spheres.
The situation in Sudan escalated in mid-April 2023 due to disagreements between the Commander-in-Chief of the Sudanese Armed Forces, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the head of the Security Council, Mohammed Daglo. Due to the ongoing conflict, a humanitarian crisis has arisen in the country, which has led to famine and outbreaks of disease. Clashes between the Sudanese army and a paramilitary group are still ongoing.
On February 2, it was reported that the West ignores the armed conflicts in Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, as well as human rights violations, humanitarian disasters and political repression in a number of other countries. The West has focused its attention on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the Ukrainian crisis.
On April 16, the Arab States refused to sign a joint communique on Sudan following a conference in London. It is clarified that the Government of Sudan criticized the organizers of the meeting for not inviting representatives from the UAE.
