Kindly Share This Story:Sudan has taken control of most of the land it accuses Ethiopians of encroaching upon near the border between the two countries, the Sudanese Information Minister said on Saturday. Disputes have been concentrated on agricultural land in al-Fashqa, which falls within Sudan’s international boundaries but has long been settled by Ethiopian farmers. There have been armed clashes between Sudanese and Ethiopian forces in recent weeks, with both sides accusing the other of instigating the violence. “We believe in dialogue to solve any problem,’’ Sudan’s Information Minister, Faisal Salih, told Reuters. Ahead of the talks this week, Ethiopia’s Foreign Minister, Ato Demeke Mekonnen, said that the Sudanese military had carried out attacks beginning on Nov. 9.
