27/6/19: AP – Ethiopia, AU float proposal for peace in Sudan, by Samy Magdy

 AP reports that Sudan’s protest movement, the Declaration of Freedom and Change (DFC) said it received a new, joint proposal from the African Union and Ethiopia for a solution to the crisis in Sudan.

 The DFC said in a brief statement they have a draft of a proposed agreement with the military council, based on a previous initiative from Ethiopia for a power-sharing arrangement.

 The military council initially rejected the Ethiopian plan, asking Ethiopia to present a joint proposal with the African Union, which it said handed the military a separate transition plan.
