The value of the Sudanese Pound has drastically weakened against the US dollars in the parallel market in Khartoum city in recent days.
The exchange rose to more than 18 SDG per dollar on the parallel market, and other currencies saw a similar rise in value against the Sudanese Pound. One Saudi Riyal rose to 5.500 SDG.
Speaking to Radio Tamazuj on Sunday, several traders complained that the prices of some consumer goods are soaring at the market. They attributed the increase in the dollar value to recent American sanctions on Sudan.
