16/9/19: Sudan Tribune - Sudan interim constitution will only be amended after peace signed with all rebels

 The Constitutional Declaration will not be amended to include representatives of the armed groups in the transitional government before reaching a comprehensive peace agreement, leading figure Forces for Freedom and Change figure Munzir Abu al-Maali said.

Al-Maali told Sudan Tribune that reopening the constitutional document is tied to achieving peace with all armed movements, rather than some.

 In separate statements, Yasir al-Atta, member of the Sovereign Council, hinted at the possibility of increasing members of the sovereign council and government to include representatives of the armed movements, or creating a new post in the transitional government for a deputy prime minister if it is necessary.

 Al-Atta said “we will negotiate with FFC to reach required consensus on all issues.”
