“Shortly the government of Sudan is going to put an end to this rebellion.
I assured them that we are keen for stability the peace in the region. But more importantly, I explained that all authorities, countries, media should distinguish between the legal authority in Sudan and the rebels. These two should not be equated to each other”, said Dafallah Alhaj, Special envoy of Sudan’s General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.
Speaking in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, the Sudanese special envoy urged the rebels to to put down arms.
