Abul Gheit in Khartoum for talks with political powers

Arab League (AL) Secretary General Ahmed Abul Gheit
arrived in Khartoum on Sunday on a visit to Sudan during which he will meet
with head of the Transitional Military Council Abdel Fattah al Burhan and
representatives of political powers and movements in the conflict-hit country.
The visit comes within the framework of the major
importance Abul Gheit attaches to following up developments in Sudan and in
line with the AL’s keenness to achieve full security and stability in its
member states, AL spokesman Mahmoud Afifi said in press statements Saturday.
During the visit, the AL secretary general will
assert the importance of the Sudanese parties’ commitment to a peaceful course
that achieves a democratic political transition, which is aspired by the Sudanese
people, the spokesman added.
