Khartoum – The Chairman of the Transitional Sovereignty Council, Commander of the Sudanese Army, Lieutenant General Abdel Fattah Al -Burhan, announced on Sunday that the army “wants to agree and a civil government guarded by it, denying the existence of a” bilateral political settlement “between the military and civilians, after a day of Islamists. The United Nations in Khartoum rejected the “international intervention” aimed at reviving the democratic transition in the country.
“There is no bilateral political settlement . . . the army received a political paper and made its observations in order to preserve its strength, unity and dignity. ”
“The army wants to agree and a civilian government guarded by partisan quotas,” the head of the sovereignty council continued.
On Thursday, the “triple mechanism” announced the arrival of “basic understandings” between the military and civilians, as this mechanism consists of the United Nations, the African Union and the Government Authority for Development (Igad)
On September 10, the Lawyer Syndicate Management Committee handed over a transitional constitution to the “Triple Mechanism” that received wide international local support.
This project includes “the nature of the state, the rule of the constitution, the rule of law, the document of rights and basic freedoms, the tasks of the transitional period, the federal system of government, and the structures and composition of the transitional authority.
”
Al -Burhan has repeatedly affirms that the army has no connection from near or far from the movements of the National Congress Party to which the isolated President Omar al -Bashir and the Islamic movement belongs, where reports were reported on efforts to rapprochement with the army leaders with the aim of returning to political life from the military gate.

Before the procedures for proof, Sudan has been witnessing since August 21, 2019 a transitional stage ending with elections at the beginning of 2024, during which the authority shares the army, civilian forces and armed movements that signed a peace agreement with the government in 2020..
