{{Sudan has stated that the Ugandan military intervention in South Sudan is threatening Sudan\u2019s national security.}}<\/p>\n
The Sudanese armed forces (SAF) have further warned that the Ugandan military presence in the south is threatening the whole of East African countries, and is demanding Kampala pull out its forces.<\/p>\n
Talking to media on Sunday, SAF spokesman Col. Alswarmy Khalid Saad accused Uganda of attempting to sabotage the relations between Khartoum and Juba.<\/p>\n
\u201cUganda has many hostility actions against Sudan; they are trying to convince the government of South Sudan that they are supporting them while [they claim] we are backing Riek Machar\u2019s forces, but that is incorrect\u201d the spokesman said.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur position is very clear that we do not have any intention of militarily intervention in South Sudan\u201d he reaffirmed.<\/p>\n
Col. Saad further dismissed accusations by the South Sudan\u2019s national army that Sudan’s air force have violated the Southern space.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have no military operations on our border with South Sudan and even the protection of the oilfields is the responsibility of the government of South Sudan\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe made it very clear that we are supporting the elected government in South Sudan, but we are against any military intervention and concerned of any foreign forces that have been deployed in the south\u201d he added. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
