RIYADH — Saudi Arabia, Arab states and organizations have welcomed on Monday the agreement on a historic peace deal between the Sudanese government and five armed groups.
Commenting on the developments, Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry said that the agreement is an important step toward achieving the ambitions of the fraternal Sudanese people and their just hopes for peace, development and prosperity.
The deal also bolsters Sudan’s sovereignty, independence, national unity and regional security, the ministry pointed out.
The ministry hailed the will and efforts of the transitional government and armed groups for prioritizing national interests and reaching the agreement, calling on remaining parties of the conflict to seize this historic opportunity and join the peace process.

Leaders of the Sudan Revolutionary Front (SRF), an umbrella organization of rebel groups from the western region of Darfur and the southern states of South Kordofan and Blue Nile, raised their fists in celebration after inking the agreement.
The deal was “initialed” and not signed, as a way to leave the door open for two key holdout rebel groups to join in a “final” agreement, officials said. Two rebel factions have refused to take part in the deal.
