Sudan minister says coup reversal 'unrealistic'
Sudan's finance minister has warned time is running out for deposed Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok to join the post-coup leadership.
Sudan’s pro-coup finance minister has called international hopes for a reversal of the country’s military overthrow “unrealistic.”
Gibreil Ibrahim told The Associated Press late on Tuesday that time is running out for the country’s deposed prime minister to agree to join the post-coup government.
“The country cannot wait forever, so if he did not take the job, then someone else will definitely take it,” Ibrahim was quoted as saying.
Dozens of civilian leaders in Sudan’s interim government were removed and arrested last month in a military coup led by Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, himself a leading member of Sudan’s post-revolutionary transitional government.
