He accused the RSF of widespread violations against citizens and infrastructure, suggesting they are acting on foreign agendas designed to undermine Sudan.

Additionally, he discussed a roadmap for civil and constitutional transformation aimed at facilitating free and fair elections through a national dialogue.
El Burhan concluded by thanking nations that support Sudan, particularly Arab countries for their commitment to Sudan’s unity and its institutional integrity, alongside commendations for the League of Arab States and its Secretary-General’s role in fostering stability in Sudan.
