Sudanese President Al-Bashir Comments on Conflict

President Al-Bashir



The President of Sudan has spoken directly with CNN in regards to the planned summit with the United States and the terms of South Sudan's secession from the whole.
He stated that the summit should ideally take place in a neutral site, specifically citing Geneva as an ideal location.
When asked what he would do if the United States did not agree to support his economy following a southern secession, he expressed disbelief that this would even be a possibility. He said that all he would require would be a "fraction" of the oil revenue, as his nation is dependent on the deposits located in the south. Failing to do so would absolutely devastate his country, he added. It is unknown how large this "fraction" or "portion" would truly need to be.
