Foreign Ministry summons the Ethiopian ambassador

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned today Ambassador Yeptal Amiru, Ambassador of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia to Sudan.

The Director General of African Affairs, Ambassador Fadl Abdullah Fadl, conveyed to the Ethiopian ambassador the ministry’s denunciation to the statements he made to the media yesterday, in which he mentioned the Ethiopian forces’ downing of a plane loaded with weapons for the Tograyan People’s Liberation Front forces, which violated the Ethiopian airspace through Sudan.

Ambassador Fadl Abdullah Fadl explained to the Ethiopian diplomat that making these unfounded allegations is contrary to the usual diplomatic traditions in communicating with the official authorities in the country of representation, especially since the leadership in the two countries seeks to strengthen relations between them.
