While the atmosphere was tinged with its usual caution, there was also a friendly spirit that suggested the meeting would be different from the norm. The hall was packed with journalists and media representatives eager to follow the event closely, all awaiting the Prime Minister\u2019s remarks upon his return.<\/p>\n<p>At exactly 3:00 p.m., Idris took the podium accompanied by Minister of Culture, Information, and Tourism Khalid Al-Eisair, who supervised the press conference. As the session began, the Prime Minister projected a mix of seriousness and anticipation, while reporters captured every movement and tone of his voice.<\/p>\n<p>In his address, Kamal Idris stated: \u201cWe have just returned from participating in the 80th session of the UN General Assembly on behalf of the Government of Hope, the people of Sudan, and all Sudanese. We affirmed that Sudan\u2019s people are a people of dignity and pride, that our army is strong, and that Sudan is a great nation endowed with resources, minerals, the longest river, and a legacy of great revolutions, civilizations, kingdoms, and people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cWe demanded a direct diplomatic policy to classify militias as terrorist organizations, and we strongly called for the liberation of El-Fashir and the lifting of the siege imposed on it. We reaffirmed Sudan\u2019s sovereignty and dignity, and the need to cleanse our land of all aggressors. These messages were delivered in all formal platforms and on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. We held intensive meetings with world leaders, the UN Secretary-General, and the Chairperson of the African Union, and we received significant sympathy and support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister stressed that the most urgent priority is \u201cto purge the homeland of militias and lift the siege on El-Fashir. We are at the forefront and will remain at the forefront, whether people like it or not. And we succeeded in conveying this message with full clarity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Range of Issues<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Idris also addressed a number of pressing issues, including his visit to Saudi Arabia, which he described as one of the most important and which resulted in understandings on a strategic partnership. He also raised the question of U.S. sanctions on Sudan, which featured prominently in his meetings with American officials, alongside the issues of lifting the siege on El-Fashir and other besieged cities, and advancing Sudanese-Sudanese dialogue through a relative consensus leading to stability and national revival.<\/p>\n<p>He further highlighted corruption and smuggling as central priorities in the Government of Hope\u2019s strategy, and pointed to discussions on Sudan\u2019s return to the African Union\u2014emphasizing that the AU needs Sudan, a founding member of the Organization of African Unity, perhaps more than Sudan needs the AU.<\/p>\n<p>Concluding his speech, he extended thanks to all who contributed to what he described as \u201cthis historic journey\u201d: \u201cI would like to thank the Chairman of the Sovereignty Council, who was in daily contact with us, the heads of state, the UN Secretary-General, the Arab League Secretary-General, the Chairperson of the African Union, the accompanying delegation, Sudan\u2019s UN Mission, and our embassy led by Ambassador Mohamed Abdallah Idris.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Denying Famine<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Idris firmly rejected reports of famine in Sudan, saying such claims in some media outlets and organizations \u201cdo not reflect reality.\u201d He explained that what exists is siege in certain areas such as El-Fashir, which requires immediate international action to lift.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed that Sudan has moved beyond any talk of famine and will not allow such narratives to be revived. He also announced that youth form the backbone of the Government of Hope, unveiling plans to empower them through housing projects and productive programs enabling their active role in development.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Al-Eisair\u2019s Phone<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Minister Khalid Al-Eisair clarified reports about raising his phone during the UN General Assembly session. He explained that his purpose was to ensure the live broadcast of the Prime Minister\u2019s speech through Sudan News Agency (SUNA) and Sudan TV, dismissing claims circulating on social media that he was recording the event. He emphasized the ministry\u2019s commitment to transparent and professional coverage of Sudan\u2019s international engagements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Combating Corruption<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Idris acknowledged the presence of corruption in state institutions but pledged to fight it vigorously. He announced that all ministers in the Government of Hope will sign financial disclosure declarations to combat administrative and financial corruption, adding: \u201cWe are in the lead, at the top\u2014whether others like it or not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The GERD and Diplomacy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), Idris revealed detailed reviews and direct diplomatic discussions with Egypt and Ethiopia to avoid disasters similar to the recent floods in Sudan. He also noted that the Sudanese delegation reached understandings with the AU leadership and several heads of state regarding Sudan\u2019s return to the African Union, describing it as only a matter of time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe AU needs Sudan more than Sudan needs it,\u201d he stressed, underlining the strong response from African leaders and confirming that agreements had been reached within the framework of a strong, unbroken Sudan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit to Saudi Arabia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Idris underscored the importance of his recent visit to Saudi Arabia at the head of a high-level delegation, describing it as one of the most significant visits he has undertaken.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Siege of El-Fashir<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He reiterated his government\u2019s call at the UN for the international community to classify the Rapid Support Forces as a terrorist militia and to lift the siege on El-Fashir.<\/p>\n<p>In closing, Idris said the delegation had also discussed lifting the blockade on El-Fashir and other towns such as Dilling and Kadugli, as well as humanitarian assistance through the UN. He noted that the army is advancing in El-Fashir and that international NGOs are ready for airdrop operations, warning that any group\u2014militia or otherwise\u2014that obstructs aid will be held accountable.<\/p>\n<p>He also revealed in-depth discussions with the U.S. administration and humanitarian organizations regarding what he described as \u201cunjust\u201d U.S. sanctions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sudan Events \u2013 Agencies Prime Minister Dr. Kamil Idris returned to the country on October 1, carrying a host of important discussions and files following his participation in the 80th session of the UN General Assembly.
