ANKARA (AA) - Turkey is committed to stand by the people and administration of Sudan and maintain bilateral ties in solidarity, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday.
Erdogan’s remarks came at a news conference in the presidential complex in Ankara following his meeting with Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, the chairman of Sudan’s Sovereign Council, in which both sides signed several memorandums of understanding.
"We are committed to standing by the brotherly people of Sudan and their administration," Erdogan said, adding that Ankara would maintain bilateral ties in solidarity in the coming days ahead.
Al-Burhan, for his part, hailed Turkey, saying the country has “always stood by Sudan.”
