While praising Algeria for its active contributions to regional peace, Al-Burhan said his country is faced with the prospect of being taken hostage by regional and international forces.

Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune on Sunday voiced his backing for Sudan's de facto leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan who visited the North African country over nine months into his conflict against enemy paramilitaries.

Algeria "stands by Sudan to overcome the difficult circumstances and confront the forces of evil targeting it", Tebboune said, without directly naming these forces.

Addressing the media alongside Burhan, Tebboune made reference to the "centuries-old relations" that bind their "two brotherly nations."

Burhan and his forces have been engaged in a fierce conflict in Sudan since April 2023, battling against the army chief's former deputy and paramilitary leader, Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.

The rift between the two generals emerged following a shared military coup in 2021, disrupting Sudan's precarious democratic transition.

"Sudan is facing a conspiracy with the complicity of international and regional partners," Burhan said, while further expressing gratitude to Algeria for its consistent presence in "every Arab or regional discussion or negotiation".

The Burhan-aligned Sudanese government has opted to suspend its membership in the East African regional bloc IGAD following its decision to invite Daglo to a summit addressing the conflict in Sudan.

A former Alegrian foreign minister, Ramtane Lamamra, has been the UN's special envoy for Sudan since November.

The conflict in Sudan has resulted in the death of at least 13,000 people, based on a conservative estimate by the Conflict Location & Event Data Project. The UN further reports that over seven million people have been displaced due to the war.

Despite Burhan's administration persistently issuing statements as the Sudanese government, Daglo's Rapid Support Forces effectively control the streets of the capital Khartoum and have significant influence over nearly all of the western Darfur region.

Since December, the paramilitaries have rapidly advanced southwards.

Daglo has shifted his focus to diplomatic initiatives, embarking on a tour of African countries in December. During this tour, he engaged with Sudan's civilian politicians, a move that analysts believe to be a likely UAE-backed effort to garner international legitimacy, as reported by AFP.
