The CBC urged the United States to remain impartial in the negotiations between Ethiopia Sudan and Egypt.

“We condemn his statement and attempt to fuel tensions,” said the Caucus which is made up of most African American members of the United States Congress.

U. S. Congressman Jason Crow also condemned the recent comments from the U.S. leader.
