The Sudanese government announced on Thursday to stop importing all the products received from Kenya, against the background of the latter’s hosting of a conference organized by the “Rapid Support Forces” in the capital, Nairobi recently. In this regard, the Sudanese Minister of Commerce, in charge of Omar Ahmed Mohamed Ali, issued a decision to stop importing all the products received from Kenya through all ports, crossings, airports and ports.
The decision stated: “The import of all the products received from the state of Kenya through all ports, crossings, airports and ports will be stopped from its date until further notice.”
The decision indicated that stopping the import of products received from Kenya came “in response to its hosting of the Rapid Support Forces, its allies and their patronage of their activities and meetings.”
The Sudanese -Kenyan relations have been witnessing a continuous deterioration since the war in Sudan erupted in mid -April 2023, and Khartoum accuses Nairobi of providing political support to the Rapid Support Forces fighting the Sudanese army.

The Sudanese government underestimated the importance of signing the charter, saying that it was “a dead boy.”
Khartoum described Nairobi’s hosting of a ceremony to sign the Rapid Support Forces and its alliances with a founding charter calling for the formation of a parallel government as “hostile action and a blatant interference in Sudan’s internal affairs.”

According to previous statistics for the Central Bank of Sudan, the volume of Sudanese imports of Kenyan products is worth about 72 million dollars, of which 45 million dollars are imports of Kenyan tea that Sudan relies on.
The war that erupted in April 2023 between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces has killed tens of thousands of people and the displacement of millions of their homes.
About half of the population of Sudan lives, or about 26 million people, as they face food insecurity, with the increasing risks of famine throughout the country and a severe deterioration of the economic and social conditions in the country due to the continuation of the ongoing conflict in 21 months, according to a report of the United Nations Development Program.
