Lt. Gen. Jabir: We are unable to prevent gold export to UAE

Member of the Transitional Sovereignty Council (TSC), Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Jabir, admitted that the government is unable to prevent the export of gold to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) despite its hostility towards Sudan and its continued support for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia because the gold belongs to traders and investors. However, he revealed the government’s intention to buy the gold, stressing that the army is victorious in this war, expecting Sudan to achieve significant growth faster than the people imagine.

Jabir announced, during an interview with the (Sudanese Echoes) platform, the development of a plan to modernize Portsudan port, which includes increasing the depth of the port, in addition to expanding the Suakin port and building a second berth.

Jabir revealed the increasing rates of requests to establish factories in Sudan, disclosing existence of Arab and Asian capitals that have begun work and others on their way to Sudan.

Meanwhile, Jabir said that the humanitarian problem of citizens is not in the scarcity of goods and food, but in the lack of money and the ability to buy.

In another context, Jabir pointed out that the government brought in 26 foreign media agencies to convey the facts from Sudan, affirming their contribution to completely changing the direction of public opinion in the West.
