On April 23 Türkiye launched a repatriation operation in Sudan for Turkish citizens after the clashes erupted between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in the country. “The evacuation operation is a bit behind schedule because there is conflict everywhere; we’re tracking it moment by moment,” Çavuşoğlu stated. He emphasized that Türkiye always had good relations with Sudan, regardless of who is in power. Stating that Ankara was in constant contact with Sudanese Deputy Foreign Minister Ali al-Sadiq, Çavuşoğlu said that Türkiye is a brand in evacuation and that many countries have asked them for help to evacuate their citizens in Sudan.
