SPLM-N Hilu to meet with Tagadum for talks on ending war in Sudan |
2024-01-10 |
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Abdel Aziz al-Hilu, leader of the Sudan![]() People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N), has confirmed his willingness to engage in discussions with the Coordination of Civil Democratic Forces (Tagadum) to explore avenues for ending the ongoing conflict in Sudan. The SPLM-N’s acceptance of the meeting follows Tagadum’s invitation to several political parties, including the Sudanese Communist Party, the Baath Party, and the SPLM-N led by Abdel Wahid al-Nur, as part of its efforts to broaden political support for a ceasefire. In a statement issued by al-Hilu’s office, the SPLM-N expressed its openness to engaging with any party or entity that shares its commitment to bringing an end to the suffering of the Sudanese people. The statement also proposed a comprehensive agenda for the discussions, encompassing issues such as national identity and voluntary unity, the relationship between religion and state, democratic transformation, the form of government, economic challenges, historical accountability, and security arrangements. This development follows the Rapid Support Forces (RSF)’s recent announcement of its readiness to cease hostilities immediately and unconditionally, as per the political declaration to end the war signed with Tagadum in Æthiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, on January 2.
