Russia is spearheading UN reform, a process to forge an "inclusive" institution that Sudan backs, Malik Agar, deputy chairman of Sudan’s Transitional Sovereignty Council, told Sputnik Africa in an exclusive interview.
"Russia was leading the reformation of the UN," Agar said. "And I believe most of the countries [...] support the expansion of the UN and reform of the UN."
According to the official, it has been witnessed that "problems are discussed bilaterally or in other groups," which can be considered "domination."
"I think there is a necessity of having a system that is inclusive to everybody," Agar stressed.
Furthermore, as the senior official noted, the inclusion of some regions in the work of the UN Security Council "is not visible."

Sudan Will Not Be Isolated
When asked by Sputnik Africa about Sudan's contribution to the development of a multi-polar world, Agar pointed out that the country is a member of the UN and will always express its opinion.
"Sudan is a member of the United Nations," the official underlined. "Sudan is not going to be isolated, so it is going to be there. And Sudan's voice will always come to the right direction of what they want and how they want it," he noted, adding that "Sudan is not going to be out of the whole issue of the whole process."
On Thursday, Agar held talks with the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Moscow.
According to the Sudanese official, the sides discussed only political issues, and the Sudanese delegation asked Russia for recommendations on resolving the raging conflict.
Clashes between Sudan's regular army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces broke out in mid-April.
The United Nations says hundreds have been killed and over 2.5 million others displaced by fighting between the rival forces.
