TSC Vice-President Meets AU Delegation, Stresses Sudanese-Led Peace

Vice President of the Transitional Sovereignty Council (TSC), Commander Malik Agar, affirmed the Sudanese government’s commitment to achieving peace and stability, stressing that peace must be Sudanese-led and shaped by national expertise, with support from partners, foremost among them the African Union (AU), provided it is based on resolving African issues within the African framework rather than external impositions. This came during his Tuesday meeting with a high-level African Union delegation for Solidarity and Advocacy for Sudan, led by the Office of the AU Commission’s Special Envoy on Women, Peace, and Security, in the presence of Minister of State for Human Resources and Social Development, Dr. Suleima Izhaq.
Commander Agar emphasized that peace cannot be achieved without the participation of the Sudanese government, affirming the state’s commitment to involving Sudanese women in all political and negotiation processes and ensuring their enhanced societal role. He noted that restoring stability requires reintegrating Sudan into the African forum and highlighted the importance of partnership with the AU within the framework of national sovereignty.
The Vice President briefed the delegation on the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) rebellion, detailing the severe harms inflicted on women, documented violations reported to local and international bodies, and the systematic destruction of Sudanese infrastructure.
Commander Agar expressed appreciation for the delegation’s visit, noting that it provides first-hand insight into conditions inside Sudan, beyond written reports and gatherings held outside the country.
The African Union delegation expressed satisfaction with the visit and the Sudanese government’s efforts to facilitate its mission, emphasizing that it aims to show continental solidarity with Sudan and support national efforts to achieve stability. The delegation also highlighted the importance of the visit in showcasing the role of Sudanese women in peacebuilding and strengthening AU partnerships to ensure women’s inclusion in political processes.
