The British Ambassador to Sudan, Giles Lever, met with a member of Sudan’s Transitional Sovereign Council, Lieutenant General Yasser Abdulrahman Al-Atta.

During the meeting, the two sides addressed the long history of the bilateral relations between the two countries and the political issues in Sudan’s transitional period.

Both sides emphasized the need to resume communication between the two countries, support the transition process, and engage in political dialogue to achieve a transitional government that would pave the way for free and fair elections under international monitoring at the end of the transitional period.
