Hamdok, in his capacity as head of the leadership body of the Coordination of Civilian Democratic Forces (Taqaddum), signed an agreement with the commander of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemedti), the "Addis Ababa Declaration," after the meetings. A joint statement from the delegations emphasized their commitment to ending the conflict.
