Representing Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan, Al-Khuraiji delivered the Kingdom’s statement during the London Conference on Sudan, held in the United Kingdom on Tuesday.

“What is happening in Sudan not only affects the Sudanese people, but also poses a threat to regional stability and Arab and African national security,” Al-Khuraiji said.

He emphasized the Kingdom’s commitment to intensifying efforts in support of dialogue, ceasefire, urgent humanitarian aid delivery, and the preservation of Sudan’s institutions, unity, territorial integrity, and national resources.

Al-Khuraiji reviewed Saudi Arabia’s diplomatic efforts since the outbreak of the conflict, noting: “The Kingdom led diplomatic initiatives by hosting the Jeddah (1) and Jeddah (2) talks, which resulted in the signing of the Jeddah Declaration on the Commitment to Protect Civilians and a short-term ceasefire agreement with humanitarian arrangements.”

He added that Jeddah (2) talks also established a humanitarian forum led by OCHA, endorsed four confidence-building measures, and agreed on a framework to address military deployments.

Al-Khuraiji warned that ending foreign interference is key to facilitating humanitarian operations, particularly opening safe corridors to ensure aid reaches those in need without delay — citing the positive impact of reopening the Adre border crossing.

The deputy minister also cautioned against steps taken outside the framework of Sudan’s official state institutions, describing them as violations of national unity, legitimacy, and the will of the Sudanese people.

He said the Kingdom “strongly warns against calls to form a parallel government or alternative entities,” deeming them “illegitimate attempts that threaten the political process, deepen divisions, and hinder efforts to reach a comprehensive national solution.”

Al-Khuraiji reiterated that the Kingdom firmly believes the solution to the Sudanese crisis lies in a Sudanese-Sudanese political process that respects Sudan’s sovereignty and unity and supports the country's legitimate institutions.
