A major Hacking Campaign and the known and difficult journey to a better life the venezuelan migrants back on the road again and facing new challenges because of course it 90. Its a decision that could remove saddam status as an International Pariah President Donald Trump says he plans to take it off the u. S. List of state sponsors of terrorism that would pave the way for khartoum to access urgently needed debt relief and for knowns trump agreed to remove the designation in return 4833335 1000000 dollars payment to american terror victims and their families the money would compensate those affected by the alqaeda attacks on u. S. Embassies in kenya and tanzania he morgan has more from khartoum. Something that means a lot to Sudanese Government because the country has been cut off from Foreign Investment largely because of being on the list of states sponsoring terrorism and this has resulted in a shortage of hard currency which makes it very hard for the country to import basic commodities such as fuel and we and that has resulted in shortages in at petrol stations and bakeries its also lead to inflation of more than 200 percent making many from families many of them who live below the poverty line struggle to get 3 meals a day now sudan says that this also means that the u. S. Administration has. D. Link the issue of being delisted to normalizing ties with israel that is something that the u. S. Has been pushing sudan to do since u. S. Secretary of state my point was that if the country in august in the previous august now sudan says that it is not in the position to actually normalize ties with israel because it is not a mandated government or an elected government lets not forget that this government is a Coalition Government from made up of various Political Parties with various leanings and different leanings and the Prime Minister has repeatedly seated that he is concerned about the stability of the transition should he make the step of normalizing and that until a mandated or elected government is in place seeking such a move will be hard but aljazeera has also spoken to senior officials who say that that does not mean normalizing is of the tables thats because normalizing comes with an economic package economic assistance that the country is in dire need of so while there are steps they could to move sudan off the list of state sponsored terrorism so dense economy is still dire and this means that the country has to look for ways to revive its economy and tell the impact of being delisted takes place. So what led to saddam being branded a state sponsor of terror for 27 years the u. S. Blacklisted in 1993 when omar bashir was president at the time he was accused of supporting armed groups including offering sanctuary to assam a bin lad now qaeda leader the group was behind attacks on u. S. Embassies in kenya and tanzania in 1998 the 335000000. 00 from khartoum would compensate victims and families of those bombings so don is one of 4 countries still considered sponsors of terror the others are iran north korea and syria the designation has cripple their economy so sedans removal is a major win for the people and a Transitional Government cameron has sent previously served as a chief of staff to the u. S. Special envoy to sudan he says a deal could be peril for khartoum status little additional goal it isnt that a lot of political pressure because of the difficulties in the supply of decision according to the population its a reflection of the economic crisis that the government of chile heritage from president bashir is also a suit donor siddons financial situation and mostly just could be eased by.
