Saudi Arabia on Friday voiced its rejection of forming a "parallel government" in war-torn Sudan.

Saudi Arabia rejects "any illegitimate steps or measures taken outside the framework of the Republic of Sudan's official institutions that may affect its unity and do not reflect the will of its people, including the call to form a parallel government," the Saudi Foreign Ministry said in a statement posted on social media platform X.
