Port Sudan – Sudanese Echoes

 

 

President of the Transitional Sovereignty Council (TSC), General Abdel-Fattah Al-Burhan, affirmed the deep-rooted and historic ties between Sudan and Egypt, noting the eternal bonds that unite the two brotherly peoples.

 

 

This came during his meeting today, Tuesday, in Port Sudan with Egyptian Foreign Minister Ambassador Badr Abdelatty, in the presence of Foreign Minister Ambassador Mohieddin Salim, Sudan’s Ambassador to Egypt General Imad-Eddin Adawi, and Egypt’s Ambassador to Sudan Hani Salah, who conveyed the greetings of President Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi.

 

 

Al-Burhan expressed his appreciation and gratitude to the Egyptian government and people for their steadfast support for Sudan in all regional and international forums, and for their keenness on Sudan’s safety, stability, and sovereignty.
