KUWAIT, April 16 (NNN-KUNA) – Kuwait said that, it hopes measures taken in Sudan would pave the way for security and stability in the country.
The government, in a meeting chaired by Acting Prime Minister and Defence Minister, Sheikh Nasser Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, said in a statement that, it hopes the measures would honour “legitimate” aspirations of the Sudanese people.
It urged the Sudanese people to observe the country’s interest, in a drive to maintain Sudan’s unity, sovereignty and independence, the statement said.
The Sudanese army ousted and detained former Sudanese President, Omar al-Bashir, on April 11, in response to four months of nationwide protests against his three-decade rule.
Sudan’s Transitional Military Council (TMC) chief, Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan, announced in a televised speech that, a civilian government will soon be formed based on national consensus.
He also assured that the TMC is committed to a two-year transitional period, after which the rule will be handed over to the civilian government formed by the people.– NNN-KUNA
