Sudanese army commander and head of the Transitional Sovereignty Council Abdel Fattah al-Burhan held talks in Port Sudan on Saturday with Saudi Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Eng. Waleed bin Abdulkarim El-Khereiji, who was in Sudan on a short visit.

The talks in the interim capital focused on relations between Saudi Arabia and Sudan and means to bolster them.

The Kingdom is keen on ensuring that security and stability are restored in Sudan, local media quoted El-Khereiji as saying.

Authorities in Port Sudan did not issue an official statement following their meeting.

El-Khereiji had previously said Saudi Arabia was tirelessly working on resolving the crisis in Sudan.

Ending the crisis starts with a halt in the fighting and bolstering the humanitarian response, he went on to say.

This will pave the way for a political future that guarantees the country’s security, stability and territorial integrity and stops foreign meddling, he added.
