Sudan has called on the African Union (AU) to reinstate its membership, emphasizing the need to resume its role in continental affairs, according to a statement from the country’s Foreign Ministry on Thursday.

According to the statement, Foreign Minister Ali Yousif Ahmed sent a letter to the foreign ministers of AU Peace and Security Council (AUPSC) member states ahead of their scheduled meeting in Addis Ababa on Friday, in which he urged the council to reconsider its stance on Sudan and allow the country to reclaim its position within the AU.

Sudan’s membership was suspended on October 27, 2021, following a state of emergency declared by Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, the chairman of the Transitional Sovereign Council and commander of the Sudanese Armed Forces, which led to the dissolution of the ruling council.
