Sudan: Algeria's support during General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan's visit to Algiers

Algeria announced its support for a peaceful solution in Sudan during the two-day official visit of General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan to Algiers. During this visit which ended on Monday January 29, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune said he was ready to support Sudan. The head of the Sudanese army, who has been waging a war against the paramilitaries since April 15, is looking for new support.

“ 

Sudan is facing a conspiracy with the complicity of international and regional partners

 ,” said General al-Burhan during his joint press conference given in Algiers with President Tebboune. Al-Burhan thanked Algeria which always stands “ 

on the side of justice

 ”, he declared before adding that “ 

its presence, on every Arab or African discussion table, is welcome

 ”.

Algiers, which had proposed an initiative, at the very beginning of the war in Sudan, advocating the unification of the efforts of Igad and the UN to end the crisis, is returning to the charge and seeking to reactivate its role. If we are to believe the Sudanese newspaper Ahdath, an Algerian delegation was in Port Sudan to propose the holding of a national conference under the aegis of the African group at the UN.

Algerian diplomacy, which favors a solution coming from within, will try its luck again even if the worsening of the conflict makes any mediation difficult. Diplomatic efforts to bring the two generals together have failed.

As a reminder, Algeria is currently part of the Security Council and its former head of diplomacy,

Ramtane Lamamra, is the United Nations special envoy to Khartoum
