Khartoum: The issue of ratifying the agreement on the creation of a logistics center for the Russian navy in Sudan will be considered by the Sudanese Sovereign Council and the government, Foreign Minister Mariam Sadig al-Mahdi said on Monday.
Al-Mahdi arrived in Russia on Sunday for an official visit.
The Sudanese and Russian defense ministers have already discussed the issues around the Russian navy’s center during a recent meeting, according to the top diplomat.
“The process of ratification of any international agreement requires going through the legislative council, but in its absence at the present time … the council of ministers on the one hand and the civil wing of the Sovereign Council on the other must study such agreements before they are ratified,” the minister said.
