Sudan's foreign affairs ministry has ordered three Chadian diplomats to leave the country within 72 hours, in retaliation for a similar move by Chad.
Chad's government had earlier declared four Sudanese diplomats attached to Sudan's embassy in N'Djamena as "persona non grata" and ordered their exit from the country within 72 hours.
The spokesperson of Chad's government says the recurrence of such statements by Sudanese authorities with regards to Chad and its government is simply not acceptable, hostile, and masks a hidden agenda.
