National Security Adviser Says Embassy Closure in Sudan is Temporary

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan speaks about the decision to close the U.S. embassy and evacuate personnel from the Sudanese capital of Khartoum over the weekend. He condemns the violence between military factions and calls for it to end so that the country can return to a path toward civilian rule. He also says the State Department and Pentagon are working together to evacuate Americans who wish to leave the war-torn country. And he says the U.S. plans to reopen the embassy as soon as it is safe to do so. close
