“We are partners working together to bring Sudan to safety,” TMC spokesman Shams El Din Kabbashi said on state TV following a meeting with the opposition. “The Transitional Military Council declares that the doors of dialogue and negotiation are open,” the TMC said in a statement. The opposition movement, which includes protest organisers the Sudanese Professionals’ Association , said it would come to talks with the TMC and “listen with an open mind”.
While the opposition has insisted on a swift handover of power to civilians, the TMC has said the process could take up to two years. Bashir ruled for 30 years after taking power in a military coup in 1989.
