Foreign ministers of the US, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Egypt released the outline for a plan to end the conflict in Sudan, calling for an immediate three-month ceasefire followed by a permanent one.
The joint statement, carried by official state news agencies of Saudi Arabia and the UAE, foresees a transitional process to be launched and concluded within nine months after the permanent ceasefire takes effect, provided that such process isn’t “controlled by any warring party.”
