Sudan's foreign minister rejects Chad's demand for apology
2023-12-13
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Sudan
...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
ese Foreign Minister Ali al-Sadiq has revealed that Chad has requested an apology from Sudan over accusations that it supported the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in their ongoing conflict with the Sudanese army. But he maintained that his government would not apologize.

On November 27, Lt Gen Yasir al-Atta, Assistant Commander-in-Chief of the Sudanese Army and member of the Sovereign Council, accused Chad of allowing Emirati weapons and ammunition to be transported through its airports to support the RSF.

In an interview with Sudan TV on Monday, al-Sadiq stated that Chad summoned Sudan’s ambassador and demanded an apology for al-Atta’s statements within three days. The Chadian government threatened to take unspecified "measures" if Sudan did not comply.

However,
facts are stubborn; statistics are more pliable...
al-Sadiq firmly rejected this demand, stating that Sudan’s accusations were based on evidence, including satellite images and aerial photography, that Chad had provided logistical support to the RSF through the UAE.
