Kuwait calls for security, stability in Sudan

Kuwait's government said that it hopes measures taken in Sudan would pave way for security and stability in the country, Trend reported citing Xinhua.

The government, in a meeting chaired by Acting Prime Minister and Defense Minister Sheikh Nasser Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, said in a statement that it hopes the measures would honor "legitimate" aspirations of the Sudanese people.

It urged the Sudanese people to observe the country's interest in a drive to maintain Sudan's unity, sovereignty and independence, the statement said.

The Sudanese army ousted and detained former Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir on April 11 in response to four months of nationwide protests against his three-decade rule.

Sudan's Transitional Military Council (TMC) chief Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan announced in a televised speech on Saturday that a civilian government will soon be formed based on national consensus.

He also assured that the TMC is committed to a two-year transitional period after which the rule will be handed over to the civilian government formed by the people.
