In support of the widespread popular movement that has swept across Sudan, demanding the resignation of Omar al-Bashir and an end to the country’s repressive dictatorial regime, a group of organizations and associations representing most of Sudanese in Norway met today in Oslo. The meeting aimed to consult and coordinate the actions needed to support the popular uprising. All participants agreed to unite their efforts under the Norway Initiative to Support the Sudanese Uprising.
The initiative aims to provide all available forms of support, including logistical, media, financial, and other assistance, to the uprising, which has successfully completed its sixth day with unprecedented momentum in the history of the regime. Our objective is to help sustain the uprising and ensure its success in overthrowing the regime, in coordination with Sudanese people inside Sudan and throughout the world.
Communications are ongoing with all organizations, associations, institutions, groups, and individuals to encourage their participation in this collective movement, unite Sudanese people in Norway, and mobilize the greatest possible support for the ongoing Sudanese uprising.
The initiative also calls upon all Sudanese people and all organizations concerned with human rights in Oslo and the surrounding areas to gather outside the Norwegian Parliament at 2:00 PM on Wednesday, December 26, 2018, to participate in the protest organized by Sudanese community members.
Glory and eternal remembrance to the martyrs of freedom and dignity!
Honor and pride to the steadfast Sudanese people!
