The Federal Republic of Somalia welcomes the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and
the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) for signing a preliminary declaration on the
protection of civilians in Sudan on May 11 in Jeddah, which will facilitate
humanitarian work to meet the urgent needs of civilians, under the auspices of
the friendly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United States of America.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation appreciates Saudi
and American efforts to bring the two parties to the conflict in Sudan to the
negotiating table and achieve this significant and meaningful declaration, which
obligates them to protect the security and safety of civilians and to deliver
humanitarian aid in accordance with international humanitarian law and human
rights law.
The Ministry also hopes that the provisions of the Declaration and its
subsequent arrangements will pave the way for defining a mechanism for a
permanent cessation of hostilities in order to reach a comprehensive agreement
that meets the aspirations of the brotherly Sudanese people for security and
political and economic stability.
