Sudan and Russia confirmed an agreement to establish a naval logistics facility near Port Sudan on the Red Sea coast, with Sudanese Foreign Minister Ali Youssef Ahmed Al-Sharif stating in Moscow that discussions concluded successfully and both sides agreed on everything.

The agreement, first outlined in December 2020, permits Russia to deploy up to 300 military personnel and station a maximum of four naval vessels simultaneously at the facility, including nuclear-powered ships, with the deal set to last 25 years and automatic 10-year extensions possible.

The Red Sea facility would provide Russia with access to a waterway connecting the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean via the Suez Canal, handling approximately 12% of global maritime trade, positioning Moscow alongside the United States and China, which operate bases in nearby Djibouti.

In exchange for the naval base, Sudan expects to receive advanced Russian antiaircraft systems and other military hardware at preferential prices to support government forces in their conflict with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, according to Sudanese officials cited in reports.

The United States issued a warning that any country or individual involved in Russia's plans to establish the naval base could face serious consequences, including sanctions, with a State Department spokesperson stating the move would further isolate Sudan and risk regional destabilization.
