The Arab League Secretary-General, Ahmed Aboul Gheit, affirmed the Arab League's commitment to supporting Sudan in this critical stage to overcome challenges during the transitional period.
Aboul Gheit received Wednesday Deputy Chairman of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) Jafar al-Sadig al-Mirghani.
A reliable source at the Arab League Secretariat said the meeting tackled developments in Sudan and the progress of the transition process, since the signing of the documents for the transitional period in July.
Mirghani, on his turn, lauded the AL’s effective role in supporting Sudan and its democratic transition.
In a related context, the AL stressed the importance of media in promoting relations between Arab and African peoples and increasing awareness on different challenges facing development in Africa.
Addressing the seventh international media forum for African media, Director of the Media Department Nasima Sharit highlighted the need to activate the role of media to allow for reaching common understandings and preparing generations to be able to deal with all communication channels.
Dr. Fawzi al-Ghuwail, Director of AIMC’s (Council of Arab Information Ministers) technical secretariat, also shed light on the importance of directing the media to showcase potentials and capabilities found in Africa. He also stressed the importance of this forum in discussing solutions and presenting recommendations to boost Arab-African ties.
