Radio Dabanga report that the US, EU and Friends of Sudan condemned the fail coup.

The spokesperson for the US Department of State, Ned Price, said that Washington condemns “the failed attempt by rogue military and civilian actors to seize power from Sudan’s Civilian Led Transitional Government” and US mobilisation of substantial assistance to Sudan will be advanced as Sudan makes “continued progress in its ongoing transition”.

The High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Joseph Borrell Fontelles, emphasised the EU’s continued support for democracy in Sudan.

The Friends of Sudan group (France, Germany, UK, Norway, Sweden, KSA, UAE, US, the EU and UN) denounced the “disruption of Sudan’s civilian-led transition by rogue military elements in Khartoum”, adding that “any attempt to destabilise or undermine…the democratic and pluralistic nature of the State as defined by the Constitutional Declaration will not be supported by the international community”.
