Sudan Seeks Removal From US Terror List

Sudan Seeks Removal From US Terror List

Sudan is negotiating with American officials, to be removed from the US list of countries that sponsor terrorism.

In order to achieve the aim, the country has sent a high level delegation to the United Arab Emirates.

 According to BBC, the Sudanese delegation is headed by the country’s leader, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.

Before the negotiation started, the US added Sudan to the list in 1993 due to its support for Islamist militants including Osama Bin Laden who lived in the country for five years.

As part of the negotiations, the US has asked Sudan to pay more than $300m (£232m) as compensation to the families of victims of terror attacks.

Meanwhile, the US government is also trying to persuade Sudan to normalise its relations with Israel.
