May 3, 2020 (Khartoum) Dozens of supporters of the ousted president, Omar al-Bashir, demonstrated on Sunday in several Sudanese cities, including the capital, Khartoum, against establishment of a proposed United Nations political mission in Sudan.
However, the mission is expected to arrive in the country at the request of the Sudanese government.
Meanwhile, in the city of Al-Daein, the capital of East Darfur State, about a hundred people from the elements of the ousted National Congress Party, took to the streets on Sunday protesting against the UN mission.
The angry protesters carried banners reading “No foreign interference and “No new colonialism” in Sudan.
The demonstrations came one day after Sudan’s cabinet had warned of suspicious moves by elements of the ousted president.
Prime Minister Dr. Abdullah Hamdouk had previously requested the United Nations to send a civil political mission under chapter VI of the United Nations Charter, to help the transitional government overcome the challenges.
