Sudanese Prime Minister Abdullah Hamdok renewed his criticism of the army and security services, deeming unacceptable their predominant weight for years in the country s economy.
The military and the leaders of the popular protest that defeated autocrat Omar al-Bashir in April 2019 reached an historic agreement in August 2019 for a gradual transfer of power to civilians.
But in recent months relations between the civilian-run government and the military have deteriorated. Every army in the world invests in defence companies, but it is unacceptable for the military and/or security services to do so in (other) productive sectors and thus compete with the private sector, Hamdok said at a press conference Monday evening after Washington removed Sudan from its blacklist of countries supporting terrorism.
