The Sudanese ambassador to Tunisia, Ahmed Abdel Wahid Ahmed, said that Sudan does not need military support as much as it needs to stop the arrival of mercenaries from neighbouring countries, including Libya, Chad and Niger.
This came during a press conference held in the capital, Tunis, in which he discussed the latest developments in his country, which is witnessing a war between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces.
The ambassador added that whenever they eliminate thousands of mercenaries coming from these countries, thousands more will come, announcing his rejection of deploying international peacekeeping forces, considering that the Sudanese army maintains security in the country, as he put it.
He pointed out that there are about 13 million Sudanese who have been displaced internally and externally as a result of the “attacks” of the Rapid Support Forces in the country, explaining that 10 million have been displaced within Sudan from the regions and about 3 million have been displaced abroad, and there are 5,000 dead in Khartoum alone.
The Sudanese ambassador pointed out that the Rapid Support Forces militia controls South Darfur, which has wealth, and has committed horrific crimes there, while it controls small pockets in the capital Khartoum, considering that they occupy homes that the army cannot demolish on them, and areas in Gezira State in the center of the country.
The ambassador attacked the Rapid Support Forces, considering that what they are doing is inconsistent with morals, humanitarian principles, and international laws, calling on the United Nations to condemn these very heinous acts, according to him.
Sudan's representative to the United Nations, Al-Harith Idris, had accused Haftar's forces, especially the "106th Brigade", of supplying the Rapid Support Forces led by "Hemedti" with shipments of ammunition and mortars through the border city of Kufra, all the way to Sudan.
