[SUDANTRIBUNE] U.S. Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken announced the appointment of Tom Perriello as the new U.S. Special Envoy for Sudan on February 26, 2024.
In this role, Perriello will lead U.S. efforts to address the ongoing crisis in Sudan, including ending the hostilities, ensuring unhindered humanitarian access, and supporting the Sudanese people’s aspirations for freedom, peace, and justice.
Secretary Blinken emphasized Perriello’s extensive experience in peacebuilding, security, and transitional justice, particularly in Africa, making him well-suited for this critical role.
Yes. We can all remember the ummm... many successes...
Perriello previously served as the U.S. Special Envoy for the Great Lakes and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Special Representative for the second Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review, and as a U.S. Congressman representing Virginia.
“He will work to empower Sudanese civilian leaders and collaborate with partners in Africa, the Middle East, and the international community to forge a united approach to stopping the senseless conflict, preventing further atrocities, and promoting accountability for past crimes,” Blinken stated.
Let us know how that works for yez.
Blinken also expressed gratitude to outgoing U.S. Ambassador to Sudan John Godfrey for his dedicated service, particularly during the current conflict.
On February 23, the U.S. Embassy to Sudan announced that Ambassador John Godfrey had concluded his tenure as the first American Ambassador to Sudan in a quarter century.
Ambassador Daniel Rubinstein will assume the role of Chargé d’Affaires, ad interim for Sudan, while the Department of State’s Bureau of African Affairs continues to support Perriello’s mission, said Blinken.
This appointment signals the U.S. commitment to engaging with Sudan to address the ongoing crisis and pave the way for a peaceful and democratic future for the Sudanese people, he concluded.
