Sudan has slammed the Kenyan government after allowing the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to hold a meeting in Nairobi to launch a parallel government
Sudan has slammed the Kenyan government after allowing the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to hold a meeting in Nairobi to launch a parallel government.
In a statement, Sudan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs accused Kenya of violating its obligations under international law, the United Nations Charter, the Constitutive Act of the African Union, and the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide by hosting the meeting.
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs regrets the Kenyan government’s disregard for its obligations under international law, the Charter of the United Nations, the Constitutive Act of the African Union, and the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide by hosting the event of signing a so-called “political agreement” between the terrorist Janjaweed militia responsible for ongoing acts of genocide in Sudan and its affiliated individuals and groups,” read the statement in part.
Sudan’s foreign ministry noted that the move to establish a parallel government in Khartoum promotes the dismembering of African states, violates their sovereignty, and interferes in their internal affairs.
Sudan also pointed out that hosting RSF leaders in Kenya was an indication that the Kenyan government supports the heinous crimes being committed by the militia in Sudan.
“Hosting leaders of the terrorist RSF militia and allowing them to conduct political and propaganda activities while they continue to perpetrate genocide, massacre civilians on an ethnic basis, attack IDP camps, and commit acts of rape constitutes an endorsement of and complicity in these heinous crimes,” the Ministry stated.

Further, it accused the Kenyan government of violating the principles of good and the pledges Kenya made not to allow hostile activities against Sudan to be carried out on its soil.
The Sudanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs additionally called on the international community to condemn Kenya for allowing RSF to hold a meeting in Nairobi.
“While the Ministry calls on the international community to condemn this hostile act by the Kenyan government, it affirms that it will take all necessary measures to redress the balance,” the Ministry added.
On Tuesday RSF leaders met at KICC to plan for the launch of what it termed as a ‘Government of Peace and Unity’.
The meeting was attended by the leader of the National Umma Party, Fadlallah Burma Nasir, leaders of the Sudanese Revolutionary Front, SPLM-N chairman Abdelaziz al-Hilu, and RSF deputy commander, Abdelrahim Daglo.
The group postponed the unveiling of its political charter and constitution to February 21, 2025, to allow further consultations before finalizing the process.
