WASHINGTON, 08 December 2022, (TON): The United States said “it would bar visas to any current or former Sudanese officials who hold up a transition to democracy, hoping to boost a tentative deal between the military and civilians.”
Secretary of State Antony Blinken voiced US support for the initial agreement announced Monday, which some pro-democracy protesters see as falling short on specifics and timelines.
Blinken said in a statement “recognizing the fragility of democratic transitions, the United States will hold to account spoilers whether military or political actors who attempt to undermine or delay democratic progress.”
