Washington, DC, US (PANA) - U.S. Special Envoy for Sudan Tom Perriello is travelling to Kenya, Uganda, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt from 30 October for meetings on the crisis in Sudan.

A media note issued by the US Department of State on Wednesday said during his trip, the Special Envoy will meet with Sudanese civil society leaders and government officials from the host countries, as well as with multilateral leaders.

“The Special Envoy will emphasise the need for immediate humanitarian access into and within all regions of Sudan, the importance of civilian protection, the urgency of all efforts to end the war, and the U.S. government’s continued commitment to supporting a transition to civilian governance that allows the Sudanese people to shape their political future,” the note said.
