Vice-President of the Transitional Sovereignty Council (TSC) Malik Agar said Egypt’s steadfast support for Sudan throughout the war reflects the depth of the two countries’ historic ties and Egypt’s respect for Sudan’s sovereignty, unity, and the will of its people.
Speaking at a farewell ceremony for Egypt’s Ambassador to Sudan, Hany Salah, Agar said “Egypt and Sudan are one people in the Nile Valley” is not a political slogan or diplomatic formality, but a reality demonstrated by actions. He praised Egypt for hosting Sudanese citizens and standing with Sudan through one of the most difficult periods in its history.
Agar commended Egypt’s consistent position that the Sudanese crisis is an internal matter and that Sudanese themselves have the right to determine their country’s future while preserving its statehood, unity, and sovereignty.
He hailed Ambassador Salah’s contribution to bilateral ties, citing the return of the Egyptian Embassy to Sudan in May 2023 and the resumption of EgyptAir flights to Port Sudan as tangible signs of continued Egyptian engagement and confidence in Sudan.
Looking ahead to reconstruction, Agar said Sudan values Egypt’s expertise and capabilities and expects them to contribute to rebuilding the country. He stressed that Sudan-Egypt relations transcend individuals and official positions, rooted instead in a shared history and enduring human and geographical ties.
Agar thanked Egypt’s leadership, government, and people for their unwavering support and commended Ambassador Salah for his service. He wished him success as Assistant Foreign Minister responsible for Sudan and South Sudan affairs, expressing hope that his new role would further deepen cooperation between the two countries.
