The United States, Norway, Britain and the European Union have warned the Sudanese military against appointing their own prime minister, saying it would risk to plung the nation into conflict.
The countries said they would not support a prime minister or government appointed without the involvement of a broad range of civilian stakeholders, BBC News reports.
The former PM, Abdalla Hamdok, resigned on Sunday amid a political deadlock and widespread protests resulting from October’s military coup.
On Tuesday in several cities, security forces fired tear gas to disperse large crowds demonstrating against military rule.
