UN hopes appointment of new Prime Minister in Sudan forges peace

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed his hope that the appointment of Dr. Kamil Eltayeb Idris as Prime Minister of Sudan will serve as the first step towards inclusive consultations aimed at forming a broad-based technocratic government and forging peace.In a statement issued by his Spokesperson, Stephane Dujarric, Guterres referred to the decree issued on May 19 by the Chairman of Sudan's Transitional Sovereign Council appointing Dr. Idris as Prime Minister.The Secretary-General emphasized ‘that consensus efforts must be prioritized and lead to tangible progress for the benefit of all the Sudanese people, including by silencing the guns, delivering essential services to all the population and laying the groundwork for a common vision for Sudan's future.’This appointment comes amid the ongoing armed conflict between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April 2023, which has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of millions. This makes the formation of a transitional government a crucial step towards restoring stability in the country.
