Sudan Sets Conditions for Dialogue with Ethiopia Regarding RSF Support

Sudanese Foreign Minister Ambassador Muhyiddin Salem stated that Khartoum is open to dialogue with Ethiopia, provided that Addis Ababa ceases alleged support for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and stops threatening Sudan's security. This announcement was made during a meeting in Khartoum on Tuesday, October 13, with Jean-Marie Safa, France’s Special Envoy for Sudan and the Horn of Africa. The Sudanese government has accused Ethiopia of allowing its territory to be used to facilitate the ongoing civil war in Sudan. The discussions between the officials also touched upon bilateral relations and broader efforts to restore regional stability. The tensions stem from persistent claims regarding Ethiopia's involvement in the Sudanese conflict.
