Following the signing of the charter in Nairobi by Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to establish a parallel government, Kenya has hailed the process while calling upon the international community led by the United Nations to support the country.
In a statement by the Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi who serves as the CS for Foreign Affairs, Kenya, while speaking for the first time since the signing of the charter, praised the process that had threatened to throw Kenya into a diplomatic crisis while urging for more support for the wartorn nation. ''Kenya also calls for the continued and enhanced involvement of regional and international partners including the African Union (AU), and the United Nations (UN), and the international community must remain united in their commitment to ensuring that Sudan's peace process is fully supported and guided toward success,'' read part of the statement by Mudavadi. ''The Government of Kenya takes note of the peace talks in Nairobi by Sudanese Political Parties, Civil Society, and military groups that led to the signing of a peace agreement and the process of the formation of a unity government.
The steps are welcomed and encouraging in a journey toward the restoration of peace, stability, and democratic governance in the Republic of Sudan.'' Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi speaking during a colloquium on the review of Kenya's Foreign Policy on July 30, 2024.
