Casa Árabe presents the latest issue of the journal Atalayar, on the political and economic situation in this African country.

Casa Árabe and the Embassy of Sudan in Spain are presenting issue 10 of the journal Atalayar: Between two shores, on the topic of “Sudan, strategic stability.”

The event will include presentations by Eduardo López Busquets, the General Director of Casa Árabe; Tarig Hassan Abusalih, Assistant Ambassador and Chargé d’Affaires of the Republic of Sudan in Spain; Javier Fernández Arribas, the publication’s director, and Col. Emilio Sánchez Rojas, an expert on the region and a Spanish businessman with interests in Sudan.

The Republic of Sudan has discreetly taken on importance in regional relations and holds notable economic potential. The country is living through a historic challenge, because its political and social stability have been strategic due to the role which they play at this time in a region plagued by conflicts and major threats by terrorist groups. The holding of presidential and legislative elections must be a turning point in the new government’s legitimacy and that of its president to govern the country using more democratic channels, while improving the economy and its people’s standard of living. At the same time, agriculture, livestock farming, natural resources like oil, gold and other minerals, services and tourism are all important sectors in which knowledge, experience and foreign investment have a good commercial market, with an Investment Law that facilitates cooperation. In this sense, Sudan offers much potential of great interest to Spanish investors, who need legal security and essential guarantees if their investments are to become a reality. Moreover, an internal political scenario with democratic stability can contribute to economic and commercial relations, as well as improving the Sudanese people’s quality of life.
