In a statement, the council described the ceremony as "the beginning of a new phase in bilateral relations" between the two nations.

Sudan's Foreign Ministry Undersecretary Hussein al-Amin emphasized that the ambassadorial exchange is a "key component" in advancing cooperation.

The Iranian envoy expressed his commitment to enhancing ties, underscoring a mutual intent to strengthen relations. On the same day, Sudan's new ambassador to Iran, Abdulaziz Hassan Saleh, departed for Tehran and is anticipated to resume his duties shortly.
