We condemn the killing of civilians in Darfur and South Kordofan / Nuba Mountains due to the deterioration caused by the coup

We call for the widest participation in the upcoming peaceful resistance processions in all parts of Sudan and the qualitative development of resistance methods

The Forces of Freedom and Change designate official spokespersons for them

The forces of freedom and change push for greater participation of women and youth

The first meeting of the Executive Office of the Forces of Freedom and Change was held yesterday evening, Thursday, December 9, 2021 AD, with the participation of all the blocs constituting freedom and change, and the meeting took many decisions related to the organizational and political situation and how to respond to the requirements of the post-coup phase of October 25, 2021, and identified spokespersons for the Forces of Freedom and Change, who will be announced soon.

Regarding the political situation:

No to the political charter that aims to legitimize the coup and create a new incubator.

The Executive Office renewed its rejection of the agreement of November 21, 2021 AD, and considered it a gift from those who do not have to those who do not deserve, and that it is nothing but an attempt to legitimize the decisions of the coup and engineer the intrusion of the constitutional document and its overthrow, and that the call for a political charter is being worked on by the Prime Minister with individuals in complete transgression of the street and the forces of freedom and change and all the forces of revolution and change are outside it, and it is only an extension of building the political incubator for the coup, and the prime minister, who was brought by the forces of freedom and change, does not have any constitutional authority to sign an agreement or put forward a political charter that aims primarily and opens the way for the replacement of the main forces of freedom and change with gelatinous entities.

Related to the coup since its inception and does not believe in democracy. The Prime Minister describes it as reasonable positions and reliable in forming his next government of technocrats supporting the coup, and we call on all living forces to reject this pact cooked at night.

We call for the widest front to resist the coup:

The Forces of Freedom and Change, benefiting from their previous experiences and their political declaration signed on September 8, 2021 AD, will seek to work with all the forces that reject the coup, represented by all the forces of revolution and change, and will conduct wide and transparent consultations on how to build the broadest front of resistance at home, this includes resistance committees, women’s organizations, revolution and change forces affiliated and not affiliated with the Alliance of Freedom and Change Forces, Sudanese organizations in the diaspora, civil society, active personalities in all fields, creators and intellectuals, not only to overthrow the coup, rather, it is to build a new democratic system that enjoys the support and backing of our people.

We condemn the killing of civilians in Darfur and South Kordofan / Nuba Mountains:

The expansion of killings of civilians in Khartoum, which spread to the countryside and cities of Sudan recently and took a dangerous turn in some areas of Darfur and Kordofan, is a direct result of the deterioration caused by the coup which began in the preparatory stages for it by causing strife in various parts of Sudan, and what happens could lead to the expansion of the civil war and the elimination of the peace agreement achieved by the revolution and will have dire consequences for civilians and will send negative messages to the movements that were negotiating the transitional government.. We call on the regional and international community to support the protection of Sudanese civilians.

Processions of peaceful resistance and qualitative development:

We call on all the daughters and sons of our people to participate extensively and effectively in the peaceful resistance processions that were called for according to the schedule issued by the resistance committees. Provided that this includes all the countryside and cities of Sudan, and we call on professionals and creators to develop qualitative forms of resistance, including strikes and sit-ins, each in its field and scope and what it deems appropriate and supportive of the resistance so that the resistance does not depend on a single form of its forms, with an emphasis on the commitment to peace.

Participation of women and youth:

The participation of women, whether in political alliances or in leadership positions in the government after the glorious December revolution, was not to the extent that fulfills their rights and does not reflect their contribution to the revolution, and the Executive Office will push a vision for the Leadership Council to adopt it to increase the effectiveness of women and youth participation.

We in the forces of freedom and change, along with the masses of our people, will resist the coup with determination and courage. Repression and arrests will not discourage us from resisting it. Rather, it will make our resistance more firm.

So that we establish our democratic civil authority, a state of equal citizenship, and justice for every right holder and for every martyr who conquered injustice and died.

Sudan: Sudanese Congress Party – Statement on the violent incidents in the states of Darfur and Kordofan (09.12.2021)

The past days and weeks have witnessed violence, killing and massive violations against defenseless civilians in separate areas of West Darfur and Kordofan, resulting in dozens of martyrs and large numbers of wounded, a number of villages and houses were burned and many properties were seized, to expand the waves of displacement from these areas, and these painful violations are still continuing until the time of writing this statement.

We in the Sudanese Congress Party have mercy on the souls of the martyrs, and we send sincere prayers to the wounded for recovery. We hold the coup authority fully responsible for these crimes and abuses, and we call on it to stop the bleeding of the pure Sudanese blood immediately, and we see that they are crimes that require rapid intervention to aid the wounded and aid the displaced, and then conduct the necessary investigations from the local, regional and international judicial authorities.

We also call on all parties to the conflict to calm down and exercise restraint, as these events reflect the consequences of the preoccupation of the People’s Armed Forces with politics instead of focusing on their professional duties, which led to a low level of security in all parts of the country.

These painful events confirm the necessity of enforcing the security arrangements in accordance with the Juba Peace Agreement, as they remained trapped in the words stipulated in the agreement without a real executive will, which increases the cost of damage to the real stakeholders.

Which is increasing day by day under the rule of the coup d’état, which must be overthrown by raising the pace and diversifying the peaceful mass action of resistance and the establishment of a civil authority that works to achieve peace on the land and preserve the blood of the Sudanese men and women.

Long live our people free and victorious

Sudan: Sudanese Congress Party – Permit (08.12.2021)

Al-Sudani International newspaper published this morning, Wednesday, December 8, 2021 AD, news that leaders of the Sudanese Congress Party have joined the arrangements of the political agreement between Al-Burhan and Hamdok.

Thus, the Sudanese Congress Party denies this false news and reiterates its declared position rejecting the aforementioned political agreement and its goal of legitimizing the coup and all the decisions that it entails … the coup agreement signed between Hamdok and Al-Burhan will not find recognition from us, and we will not accept any process that is based on it, and we will not give it an iota of legitimacy.

And as we affirm that what was reported by Al-Sudani International newspaper is completely untrue and that it behaved unprofessional, the Political Bureau directed the party’s legal sector to take the necessary legal measures with the competent judicial authorities.

The hordes of revolutionaries and free revolutionaries rose today in the capital and the provinces, and the roaring processions overflowed on the millions of December 6, opening of the activities of the peaceful mass resistance to the coup in the month of the launch of the glorious revolution, it tightened its peaceful siege of the brutal coup and confirmed its complete loss of legitimacy. And revealed the failure of their desperate attempts to create a political or popular incubator to hide their bad act.

Our teacher people;

We in the Sudanese Congress Party salute the struggles and sacrifices of our proud people, and we support the honorable revolutionaries and revolutionaries in the forces of the living revolution in its various professional and partisan organizations and resistance committees.

We also condemn the systematic violence of the brutal coup forces against the peaceful processions, which led to the fall of a number of casualties and the arrest of dozens of honorable people, as well as the deployment of armed gangs and the orchestration of the burning of the Al-Safi police station in a new miserable attempt to stigmatize the movement as neutral from peacefulness.

And justifying the repression and violence of the hijacked state machine in favor of the coup authority, as they are open criminal tricks practiced by all dictatorial regimes to oppose their opponents, have not and will not deceive public opinion, especially with the rise of collective awareness and careful monitoring of all the course of the peaceful resistance movement.

We affirm that perseverance in the act of resisting the coup and escalating the mass movement and diversifying its means is our way to achieve the goals of the glorious revolution and the establishment of pure civil authority, and that we will make every effort to strengthen the unity of the forces of the revolution and continue the march steadily until victory is complete, the coup is dying and its vital signs are fading day after day, in return for more igniting the flame of the revolution, and the power of our people who are commanding and overpowering.

Sudan: Sudan Professionals Association – Procession Statement December 6, 2021 (06.12.2021)

The masses of our great people and their revolutionary forces went out in millions of processions today, December 6, 2021, in the national capital and various cities and villages of Sudan, and confirmed that the revolutionary attendance book on the third anniversary of the glorious December will be more radiant, bright and determined.

The people’s revolution continues until the uprooting of the putschists and their corrupt regime from the roots, and the establishment of the full transitional civil national authority according to a new revolutionary legitimacy is an uncompromising goal, and the construction of a Sudan of freedom, peace and justice is an imposition that cannot be undone.

The paid forces and militias affiliated with the Military Council coalition attacked the peaceful revolutionaries in a number of cities, and used excessive force and tear gas, and they still practice harassment and arbitrary arrests in the streets of the steadfast city of Bahri, and they pursue the peaceful revolutionaries who are returning to Omdurman.

It is another crime that is added to the record of shame and disgrace for the criminal putschists, and irrefutable evidence of the barbarity of their authority and their hostility to the people’s revolution and its goals in civil and democratic transformation.

The revolutionary forces will continue their daily work in diversifying the tools of peaceful resistance, millions processions will continue throughout the month of December until the defeat of the putschists and their fair trials for the crimes and massacres they committed against our patient people, and until the establishment of the authority of the revolution and the people stemming from the revolutionary forces and believing in radical change and its goals.

Media platforms, citing (Darfur 24) website, circulated news about the proposal of the Central Council for Freedom and Change, for a political declaration that paves the way for a new agreement based on the agreement signed between Al-Burhan and Hamdok on November 21 last.

The Central Council for Freedom and Change confirms that this news is incorrect and contradicts our declared position regarding the political declaration signed between Dr. Hamdok and the coup leader, General Al-Burhan, who considers what happened between them as an attempt to legitimize the coup.

And it is only a continuation of the successive coup decisions since the date of October 25, 2021 AD, and we in the Central Council of the Forces of Freedom and Change confirm that we are working with the broad groups of our proud people who reject the coup in order to resist and defeat it.

Sudan: Sudanese Professionals Association – Statement on the statements of the Secretary-General of the United Nations (03.12.2021)

News agencies circulated about the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mr. Antonio Guterres, rejecting statements regarding the political agreement between Al-Burhan and Hamdok, calling on the Sudanese to accept this agreement and its consequences and warning of the consequences of continuing his resistance.

This is considered a transgression by Mr. Guterres of the will of the Sudanese street, which rejects the aforementioned agreement and what precedes it, and it dictates to the Sudanese what they should do from a position of guardianship that they do not have what qualifies them for it.

Guterres’s repudiation of the revolutionaries’ threats to the Sudanese people with dire consequences if he continues to resist them and their miserable agreement with Hamdok is a moral and political fall, which the Secretary of the International Organization should not have fallen into, as it is a justification for the violence of the putschists directed against our people’s right to peaceful expression of their aspirations.

It is a condemned trend that the international organization should hold accountable for, who did not take into account the sensitivity of his position and disregard the message of the United Nations in the maintenance of basic rights, foremost of which is freedom of expression, and even protection.

We say to Mr. Guterres, the time has come for the international community to listen to the voice of the Sudanese people and reset their discourse and behavior on this basis. The time has passed when our people are led by dictates. Our people are not waiting for anyone’s permission and will impose their will with the tools of their peaceful struggle on whoever is deaf, whoever they are. .

Sudan: Sudanese Congress Party – Press Statement (03.12.2021)

We follow with strong condemnation, and since before the brutal coup on the twenty-fifth of October, what the pens of the officers in charge of the People’s Armed Forces newspaper have been writing about going into the politics of the country, and their systematic campaigns against the national political parties and their miserable attempts to sow discord and charge members of the regular forces against them with slanders that sidestep the truth, and drive a wedge between them and the various groups of the Sudanese people, the last of which was the article of its editor in which he attacked the Sudanese Communist Party.

We in the Sudanese Congress Party affirm our categorical rejection of the politicization of the armed forces, and we believe that these pens necessarily represent an extension of the former regime, which calls us to further adhere to one of the most important demands of the glorious December revolution, which is the reform of all public institutions and the removal of the systematic empowerment that covered it during three dark decades, and at the forefront of these institutions the armed forces, which leads to the existence of a single national army that represents all of Sudan and operates through a law that defines its professional role and criminalizes its involvement in politics.
