Khartoum: President of the Transitional Sovereignty Council (TSC) and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, General Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan, met on Sunday with a dissident delegation from the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) led by military commander Mohamed Bishara Disko. The meeting was part of the effort to support the Dignity Battle.
According to Sudan News Agency, Commander Bishara stated in a press release that his support for the armed forces in the Dignity Battle originated from a belief that Sudan is facing a conspiracy backed by regional and international powers. He elaborated that the alliance between the rebellion and certain political forces in Nairobi is merely a component of a plan to divide and destabilize Sudan. Bishara affirmed that his backing of the national rank is based on a strong conviction of the importance of fighting the Dignity Battle alongside the armed forces and supporting forces to defeat and eradicate the rebellion.
