October 25, 2021 (DJIBOUTI, Djibouti): The IGAD Executive Secretary is alarmed by the current political developments in Sudan and is following the situation very closely.
The Executive Secretary strongly condemns any attempt to undermine the transitional government and urges all parties to exercise utmost restraint.
