"The topic of military intervention in Syria is premature and off the table at the moment, but Sudan remains committed to its obligations within the Islamic Alliance," Ghandour said during a joint press conference with his Saudi Arabian counterpart Adel Jubeir.
During the press conference in Khartoum, the Saudi foreign minister stated that he had discussed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the situation in Syria, Yemen, Somalia and Libya. The Sudanese and Saudis see eye to eye on these issues, Ghandour said, adding that the two countries coordinated closely over them.
On Friday, Saudi Defense Ministry adviser Brigadier General Ahmed Asiri told Sputnik that Riyadh had not yet decided when they would begin a ground campaign in Syria.
Syria has been in a state of civil war since 2011, with government forces fighting a range of armed opposition groups, as well as extremist organizations including the Nusra Front and Daesh, a jihadist organization outlawed in many countries, including Russia and the United States.
