KHARTOUM, 22, January, 2021, (TON): Dominic Raab, British Foreign Secretary landed in the capital of Sudan to have bilateral talks and to review the tensions along the Sudan-Ethiopia border on Thursday.

The functionary met General Abdel-Fattah Burhan, head of Sudan's ruling sovereign council, Sudan's prime minister, Abdalla Hamdok, and acting foreign minister Omar Qamar al-Din said the media.

Potential military conflict has been going on as violent clashes between the Sudanese forces and Ethiopian militias are going on the border of the neighboring counties.

Along with the discussion on the border tensions, water dispute between Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia was expected to be discussed. The dispute is over Ethiopia's construction of a controversial dam on the Blue Nile River, the main tributary of the Nile.

The aftermath of the tenure of the autocratic Omar al-Bashir in April 2019, Sudan is now the democratic path after nearly three decades with a military-civilian government in power.

"Sudan is passing through a critical juncture in its transition to democracy," Raab was quoted by the media as, "The U.K. takes pride in standing by the side of the Sudanese people."

Raab announced a provision of 40 million pounds to the Sudan Family Support Program, which will provide 1.6 million people with direct financial support, in a move to support the economic reforms of the Sudanese government.

Although U.K. is offering a handsome financial aid to the Sudanese people, the people in the United Kingdom is facing the recession and consequences related.
