United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken says Sudan’s warring generals have agreed to a three-day ceasefire starting Midnight on April 24, after previous bids to pause the conflict quickly disintegrated.
In a statement, Secretary Blinken says the United States expects the SAF and RSF to immediately and fully uphold the ceasefire. He added that the United States is also working with partners to set up a committee that would negotiate a permanent ceasefire in Sudan, where the conflict between rival generals descended into deadly violence 10 days ago.
The US Secretary of State had met earlier Monday in Washington on the peace efforts with Kenya’s top diplomat and has held phone conversations with counterparts from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
