Sudan’s Sovereign Council Member: Those Seeking Juba Agreement Amendments Should Table Their Arguments
Cairo – Sudanhorizon – Sabah Mousa
Member of the Sudanese Sovereign Council Abdallah Yahya has stated that his visit to the Blue Nile region two days ago was an inspection tour aimed at assessing the overall situation on the ground, noting his previous visits to the states of Al-Gezirah and Sinnar.
In exclusive statement, Yahya added that the visit provided an opportunity to check on citizens’ living conditions and the success of the agricultural season. He also assessed the security situation and the progress made by the Armed Forces and supporting forces in pursuing and defeating rebels on the region’s outskirts and in certain southern localities.
He emphasized that the situation in the region is highly stable, noting that thanks to the steadfastness of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the citizens’ strong support for their troops, the region is poised for a successful agricultural season and increased stability.
Regarding military operations on the West Darfur front, Yahya explained that they align with operational performance on other battlefronts, as they are conducted in accordance with the Armed Forces General Staff’s operational directives and command-and-control systems. He pointed out that while operations are centrally controlled, they also take into account field conditions and the operational command’s strategic vision, confirming that—in any case—there is notable progress on this front. Yahya emphasized that Sudan has been subjected to aggression by the insurgency—backed by significant support launched from the territories of certain neighboring countries—in flagrant violation of international law and the principles of good-neighborliness, thereby undermining international peace and security; he stressed that whoever ignites a fire in their neighborhood will inevitably be consumed by the flames.
Regarding calls to amend the Juba Peace Agreement, Yahya stated that the agreement ended the fighting between factions of the Sudanese people who held legitimate grievances, noting that these groups now stand in the national ranks alongside the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). He added that while the agreement is significant, it remains a human endeavor that may not command universal consensus, asserting that anyone advocating for its amendment must present their arguments and justifications.
