Gen Al Burhan is visiting Libya for talks with National Unity Government Prime Minister, Abdul Hamid Dbeibah. Sudan has more recently been plunged into civil conflict after a power struggle between Gen Al Burhan and his one-time ally Gen Mohamed Dagalo, who controls the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary, escalated into armed conflict. On his first official visit to Libya, Gen Al Burhan discussed regional and international issues with Mr Dbeibah and chairman of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mohamed Al Menfi, a statement from Mr Dbeibah’s press office said. Mr Al Menfi expressed his country's support for Gen Al Burhan's efforts to bring peace and stability to the people of Sudan in a joint press conference. Gen Al Burhan expressed his gratitude for Libya’s “honourable stances” regarding Sudan and his hopes for further economic, political and military co-operation between the two countries.
