Secondary Support: The Chad National Front (FNT) was, however, based in Sudan at least in 1992. This has not been coded as support from a secondary party, since it has not been possible to establish whether they also used Sudan as a military base against Chad and if they were staying in Sudan with the Sudanese governments consent.
