The United Nations, the African Union, and the Sudan Troika all condemned the attempted military coup at dawn on Tuesday, and expressed their support for the Sudanese transition towards democracy.
“The United Nations rejects any calls for a military coup or the replacement of the transitional government with military rule,” Volker Perthes, Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations and Head of the UN Integrated Transition Assistance Mission in Sudan (UNITAMS), said in a statement yesterday.
