Moscow recognises the new government of Sudan, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov said in a statement.
“Yes, of course,” said Bogdanov, when questioned whether Moscow recognises the new authorities of Sudan and whether it maintains contact with them.
The next day, the transitional military council, led by Abdel Fattah Abdelrahman Burhan, announced the abolition of the curfew and state of emergency imposed earlier. He announced that the term of the council’s work would be a maximum of two years, and confirmed the obligation to transfer power to a civilian government.
