US envoy Jeff Feltman, on Sudan call, characterized Sudanese generals he met with ahead of Oct. 25 coup to discuss their concerns with transition and possible mechanisms to address them as speaking to US officials in bad faith.
He commended members of Sudanese security forces who exercised restraint during demos over weekend, & observed Sudanese demonstrators by and large stayed away from military installations, reducing friction. Said US admires the courage of Sudanese people in demanding their voices
be heard and helping their country make strides to a new sudan. "To those freedom loving Sudanese, I say the world is watching." US will not accept the military sideline their hard-fought democratic transition, and we stand with the people of Sudan, Feltman said.
Feltman said, in terms of negotiations, there are some Sudanese initiatives, attempts by the Sudanese themselves to find a way forward. The AU may appoint an eminent person envoy. And he is figuring out his next travel to the region, referenced a lot going on, DC decisions
USIP is hosting a discussion with Feltman at 10 dc time,
