ETHIOPIAN PM ABIY AHMED VISITS PORT SUDAN FOR PEACE TALKS


Ahmed, Ethiopia’s Prime Minister, traveled to Port Sudan on Tuesday. This trip marks the first time a foreign leader has visited since war erupted in Sudan. Ahmed met with Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, who leads the Sovereign Council and commands Sudan’s army. They talked about the ongoing conflict and ways to achieve peace. General Abdel Fattah greeted Ahmed when he arrived, and a guard of honor was present.
This visit has a big impact on regional diplomacy. Ahmed’s trip shows Ethiopia wants to play a role in resolving Sudan’s crisis. The meeting between Ahmed and al-Burhan might help start new talks between warring parties. Their discussion could lead to fresh ideas for ending the conflict.
The warm reception Ahmed got hints at good relations between Ethiopia and Sudan’s current leadership. This friendly welcome might mean Sudan is open to outside help in solving its problems. The guard of honor suggests Sudan sees this visit as very important.
Abdel Fattah told the Prime Minister about Sudan’s problems, as the Sovereign Council reported. He focused on the RSF militia’s fight against the government. The General said the RSF hurt civilians broke stuff, and attacked important places.
Abiy didn’t stay long. He said peace is key to grow. He thinks countries should fix their own problems without others butting in. “You know who your real friends are when things get tough,” Abiy said. He promised Ethiopia would back Sudan both and among regular people. He hopes the fighting will stop, which he thinks will make the two countries closer.
Ethiopia’s visit shows its active approach to diplomacy. It comes at a time when the region faces unrest. The visit proves Ethiopia wants to help Sudan find peace and become stable.
