Foreign Minister Nabil Ammar called the members of the Tunisian diplomatic mission in Khartoum to inquire about the situation of Tunisians and their living conditions in the light of recent developments in this brotherly country, reads a statement of the department.
The minister called on the members of the Tunisian mission to maintain permanent contact with Tunisians residing in Sudan and to remain attentive to their needs in case of necessity. He stressed the importance of being vigilant and taking all available measures to secure the headquarters of the Tunisian diplomatic mission in Khartoum.
The Tunisian community established in Sudan is composed of 110 members among senior officials assigned to regional and international organisations, the Department of Foreign Affairs said.
On Saturday, the ministry assured that the Tunisians are safe following the clashes that broke out between the army and the Rapid Support Forces (paramilitary).
