Sudan Delays Signing Of Political Agreement

The Sudanese government has delayed the signing of a political agreement.

The spokesperson of the negotiation process said the signing of a final political agreement in Sudan was delayed due to a lack of “consensus on some outstanding issues.”

Report says the final accord to name a civilian government this month and launch a new transition towards elections was originally to be signed on Saturday.

Meanwhile, disagreements surfaced this week over the timeline for integrating the powerful paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, RSF into the military, a move called for in a framework deal for the new transition signed in December.
