Sudanese army is a national institution, not tied to any group, says Burhan

Sudan’s Sovereign Council Chairman Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has stated that the Sudanese army is a national institution and does not belong to any tribe or specific group.

Burhan reiterated his rejection of any “incomplete peace” in the country, stressing that the army is committed to “completing the cleansing of the country from terrorist militias.”

According to remarks reported by Al Arabiya, Burhan indicated that the status of fighters could be discussed, with the possibility of integrating those not involved in crimes into the regular armed forces.

He called on all Sudanese citizens to return to their homeland, adding that he is open to any serious peace initiative. However, he emphasized that he would not accept a “partial peace” that would allow the Rapid Support Forces, led by Hemeti, and their supporters to return to power.

It is noteworthy that the Sudanese army has taken control of central, eastern, and northern regions of the country, making significant advances over the past month. The army has pushed the Rapid Support Forces westward and secured the highway linking Omdurman and El-Obeid, the largest city in the Kordofan region, which the Rapid Support Forces had been attempting to encircle for months.
