Sudan on Sunday urged all conflicting parties in Ethiopiaโs Tigray region to stop fighting and sit at the negotiating table.
A high-level meeting held in Sudanโs capital Khartoum expressed deep concern that the developments in Ethiopia may lead to negative impact on the regional stability, particularly the neighbouring countries, Sudanโs Sovereign Council said in a statement.
The future of Ethiopia is determined by Ethiopians and โjudging by neighbouring relations and interests, Sudan will spare no effort to work with all the parties in Ethiopia to reach a consensus that enhances the unity of Ethiopia,โ the statement added.
Fighting erupted in early November last year in Ethiopiaโs northernmost Tigray region between the Tigray Peopleโs Liberation Front, which used to rule the regional state, and the Ethiopian National Defence Forces.
There were renewed tensions in Tigray on the border with Sudan after the rebels managed to restore control over the regionโs capital city of Mekele last week.
