Central Africa: Foreign Minister Stresses Need to End External Interference to Achieve Stability in the Great Lakes Region
Ambassador Mohi-Eddin arrived in Lusaka this week to lead Sudan's delegation at the 20th Ordinary Session of the Regional Interministerial Committee of the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region, held in the Zambian capital with high-level regional and international attendance.
Speaking at the session, the Foreign Minister put external interference front and center, stressing that ending it is a necessary condition for achieving lasting stability across the Great Lakes region. The message was direct and pointed, landing in a room full of the very stakeholders whose positions shape the region's political future.
The gathering, convened under the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region framework, brought together ministers and senior officials from across Central and East Africa. With Sudan itself navigating one of its most turbulent periods in recent memory, Mohi-Eddin's presence signals that Khartoum still sees multilateral diplomacy as a live tool, not a formality.
Whether the Lusaka session produces concrete commitments or closes as another round of carefully worded communiqués is the question the region is watching.
