November 1, 2009 (Khartoum) — A high level Chadian delegation would visit Sudan very soon to resume talks which the two sides had engaged last month over the political dossiers between the two neighboring countries.
Sudanese presidential adviser Ghazi Salah Al-Deen Attabanti met the Chadian President Idriss Deby on Saturday October 10 expressing Khartoum willingness to improve ties and end the current tensions between the two countries.
During a visit to Paris Deby said Sudanese President Omer Hassan Al-Bashir had committed himself to remove the Chadian rebels and to confine them far from the border. He also said he agreed to allow Sudan to verify the presence of Darfur rebels in his country.
Sudanese state minister at the foreign ministry, El Wasila Al Samani, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to strengthen bilateral ties with Chad for the sake of the interests of both countries.
He said Sudan expected a visit from a Chadian delegation “very soon” to finalize discussions that the two countries had began in a practical, objective and realistic way.
El Wasila said Sudanese government was confident that the Chadian government shares the same feeling in the exploitation of the border for the benefit of the people rather than become carriers of the weapon and making the situation worse.
He also stressed that the regional situation of Sudan and Chad make them more willing to play a role that contribute in bringing comprehensive peace in the region.
