KHARTOUM (AA) – Sudan and Egypt have both called for a “diplomatic and legal solution” to the ongoing row over the Oct. 2 murder in Istanbul of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Following a Wednesday meeting between the two countries’ foreign ministers, Sudanese Ambassador to Egypt Abdul Mahmoud Abdul Halim told reporters in Khartoum that both sides were concerned that the Khashoggi case could give rise to “conspiracies” against certain Arab and Muslim countries.
“We are calling on all parties to deal with the issue wisely, so as not to give any opportunities to those who seek to conspire against Arab and Muslim nations,” Abdul Halim said.
The ambassador went on to say that the two FMs had also discussed recent regional developments, especially those in Libya, Yemen and Syria.
