Hello thanks for joining us so don is all set to end more than 25 years of International Isolation its transition to democracy the us President Donald Trump says hes ready to remove the country from a list of state sponsors of terrorism now as part of that deal sudan says its transferred comp. Station for u. S. Victims and their families from the bombing attacks on washingtons embassies in kenya and tanzania in 1908 well speak to a correspondent morgan shortly but 1st here is her reports. This is one of the events that have kept sudan on a u. S. List of state sponsors of terror and kept most Foreign Investors away for more than 25 years. In august 1900 attacks on the u. S. Embassies in kenya and tanzania killed 224 people and injured more than 4000 sudan was accused of providing a base for the bombers then president ahmed had already been accused of offering sanctuary to the likes of al qaeda and its leader osama bin laden. But after you have negotiations by the Transitional Government President Donald Trump says hes ready to restore sudans International Status in a tweet he said sudan had agreed to pay 335000000. 00 compensation and once deposited he would remove it from the list. The road ahead of us is long and we have to have a serious plan and Work Together to benefit from this opportunity we promised people and we work to achieve our promise with no agenda except the interest of the nation together we can achieve the impossible being on the list has meant sudan has struggled for investment resulting in a hard currency shortage that led to inflation that 1st rose slowly then steeply the countrys pound has lost more than 50 percent of its value against the dollar in just the past 2 months because strapped government is struggling to pay for stuff lies of lead fuel and medicine all items it subsidizes resulting in shortages sudans removal from the u. S. List would allow it to be relieved of its that by the International Monetary fund that will still take months but the country needs help now some analysts say that may mean a move to normalize ties with israel which comes with an economic assistance package could still happen i suspect however that we will see in the coming days or weeks. An effort towards normalization on the part of the sudanese because washington at the end of the day needs to get some kind of political way and i think its a sad commentary for washington and for the trumpet ministration that it isnt a sufficient enough win for them to point to a Success Story in the horn of africa where there wasnt one before this is a region you know beset with political problems and economic problems and for us to be able to point to a Success Story should be a sufficient Foreign Policy win for this administration that it should want to triumph and trumpet that win. And while President Trumps the Foreign Policy when sudans Prime Minister abdullah him to set the delisting would open paths for sudan economic improvement crucial for its transition to democracy. Will bring in our White House Correspondent kemeny halkett in just a moment for reaction from washington but 1st have a morgan will join us now from khartoum and so donna saying its now transferred the millions and compensation have also know what comes next for sudan once its actually removed from that list. Well for sudan this was a crucial and important matter that had to be completed within this transitional period the economy has been witnessing a rise in inflation since this Transitional Government came to power last august in january the inflation was at 60 percent now its had over 125 percent thats because there is no hard currency coming in due to sudan being on the list of state sponsors of terrorism the minister of finance spoke just a short while ago and she said that while this is good news it doesnt mean that the Economic Impact will be felt right away she says that they are still processes and procedures that will take place before the impact of the delisting can actually be felt by the average sudanese people but she says this paves the way for the Banking System in sudan to be able to cooperate with external or foreign banks that is something that sudan was not able to do before being delisted and that is something it will not still be able to do until it is officially delisted after depositing the mining and after president signs off on the order in sudan of the states sponsoring terrorism the other thing is the issue of transfer sudanese here in sudan cannot transfer u. S. Dollars or hard currency outside of the country neither can they receive the minister of finance and that is going to change one thing delisted along with the route to pay paving road to being basically relieved of its 60000000000 dollars debt something that has been accumulated over the past 30 years ok but thank you for vats from khartoum lets bring in. Joining us from the White House Security is the string seen as a Foreign Policy win for the president 2 weeks before the election. Well certainly that is the goal of the president to try and achieve this before the u. S. Election and he is in fact trying to kind of add to the list of what he sees as his Foreign Policy goals but this is also kind of a personal goal of the president ever has to do in the context of his support of israel something that he has had through out his administration now in terms of this the we know that up until last month the United States had worked to formalize relationships between arab nations and israel but it really only included jordan and egypt all that change of course last month when adding to that list was the u. A. E. And bahrain and this is ministrations really interested in seeing yet another country sudan added to this list so as part of these negotiations that weve been talking about 11th hour condition was that recognition the administration offering humanitarian aid to sit down to try and help escalate these agreements but at the same time this is obviously a Sticking Point one that the administration is really working on but to be fair it isnt just a trumpet ministration Foreign Policy goal congress has been trying to recognize that encourage democracy for almost 2 years at least a year and a half but when it comes to the compensation there are still a lot of Sticking Points the american courts have not decided how these funds could be distributed theres also the issue of how much an american citizen might get in comparison to say a kenyan or tense indian victim so there are still a lot of issues to work out now in terms of the election i have to be honest there arent Many Americans that are going to cast their ballot based on this issue still it will be something that the president can talk about particularly in this upcoming president ial debate set to take place on thursday that will include Foreign Policy issues all right so you can really thank you very much for that update from the white house lets speak about this with one. Majuba who is a governance and Development Expert and president of the Sudan Policy Forum hes joining us from doha thanks for being with us on the news hour so this is a significant political win for the Transitional Government which has really been accused of not being able to get the economy up and running so the repercussions of this will be felt by the sudanese on the ground answer. Yes i mean rather than going through a legally called proceedings or. Getting all of this in court extra you my me we need to give you a little bit over a little background here the ex again knowing the criminal record. Tourists do make what we know as an. Island settlement so the. Foreign minister has succeeded in that using the city event from 7000000000. 00 to 2000000000. 00 the current Prime Minister has finally succeeded in reducing it to 335000000. 00. Once sold down is the listed. I mean it should be able to regain what we know as a sovereign immunity or some very privileged insitu be able to become again it should be able to regain its to start a member of the international Banking System now book but once that is issued i think sudan will be issued and ive been a number or it will be part of this suite. Called little wick hands companies should be able to resume did normal activity like the able to extend an it out of creating it and they should be able to import this seemed machinery and get it cut some of. The equipment badly needed to increase the productivity of sudanese prison so this is a deal between the u. S. And so don but to what extent then is it a real reset as well with the International Community. I think its not its not there yet he said and again its. Sudan is putting it in president s of a country that is sued for crimes that it wasnt crimes that willing committed by the sudanese people it wasnt committed i mean in sudan and it was indeed needed and designed by saudi citizen implemented by him and yet many cities and carried out in International Waters so setting such a precedence we dont know the extent to which this is going to help greece in the image of sudan in the International Community however there are 2 important outcomes here at the submarine did obviously would not automatically be these all of these unimportant. But its direction will be put aside so if so done there is this all its definitely going to have been but thats not going to happen immediately ok let me ask you about another topic officially of course officially on the face of it any link between this deal and that of normalizing relations with israel is being denied by officials but behind the scenes do you think that the said show is really off the table how much pressure is so done under by not only the United States but its backers to normalize relations with israel. I think thats an important question knowing that kicked out of the american president delivered of i dont concede joyce i dont think there is no way that he could have missed it sudan from terrorist list that was our team receiving. Actually i think without the sudanese people making very clear decision about the normalization of relations. Theres no way down he could have done this list it is just and election eating at him but i doubt it very much because he knows the mentality of this dennys kind of entity gene do you know how weak they are you know. A lot of political establishment and the pressure its the economic cruise ships that they are facing so i think he he already had put it in front on table and again is that he should the this thing. Or that all right so we will have to wait and see what happens but for the time they were leaving the table we thank you very much for speaking to us on this issue from doha. Thank you. Delegation has arrived in israel for its 1st official visit since the 2 countries normalize diplomatic relations palestinian officials branded the move shameful the uys finance and economy ministers of the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have now signed 4 agreements including one on visa free travel the u.

New buttons on microphones are being introduced for the final Election Debate between donald trump and joe biden the u. S. President frequently interrupted his democratic challenger during their 1st face to face debate last month on thursday each will get 2 minutes without interruption trump says its unfair but he will take part our correspondent mike hanna has more from washington d. C. Strictly speaking its the same format and that is a 90 minute debate divided into 6 sections but what the change is is that each candidate will be given 2 minutes to speak at the beginning of each section and now the commission on president ial debates says the other candidates microphone will be switched off during those 2 minutes to stop all interruptions and then during the discussion that will follow a free discussion in each section any candidate that interrupts will have the time taken off him and given to the other candidate this just follows the absolute chaos that ensued in the 1st and only Television Debate between joe biden and President Trump now the commission insisting that it has to take these safeguards to ensure that some form of debate does take place between the candidates early on in the day of the Trump Campaign sent the commission a letter saying that it object to the fact that it was not focusing on Foreign Policy this particular debate it also described the commission as pro biden and also insisted that it would not accept the muting of microphones well the commission announced this change in rules after that and it doesnt appear that theres been any oppose all opposition to this particular fact so it appears that this debate will be going ahead according to this new formula in terms of which the candidates mikes will be switched off for the 1st 2 minutes while the other candidate is talking the u. S. Supreme court has the quine day republican been that would have limited the count of mail in ballots in the state of pennsylvania it means postal votes there can now be counted up to 3 days after the election on november the 3rd the top court was deadlocked allowing a Lower Court Ruling to stand there are currently only 8 justices on the bench following the death of ruth bader ginsburg. Well black lives matter protests and the accompanying violence and Property Damage could have an impact on us suburban voters in the upcoming election and they were key to Donald Trumps victory in 2016 helping him take 3 states and he came close to winning minnesota from where john hendren has filed this report all of the suburbs were rolling lawns lead to expensive homes where scenic views meet shops quaint and common close to culture far enough from squalor idyllic havens of safety in middle income splendor but dont let the leafy tranquility fool you divisions here run deep these are the battle grounds where the u. S. Election will be decided in suburban minnesota a short commute from minneapolis George Floyds death under a Police Officers need led to raucous protests that divided a nation and many households it divides. And probably for me it would be trying i like the idea of a republican socialism and that seems to be the direction of the democrats and i think character is an important quality and. I think also we need someone who can unify and not divide it why President Donald Trump seeks to instill fear into the suburban heart if you were elected this guy the suburbs would be overwhelmed with violence and crime and why joe biden is striking back how many suburbs will be burned in wildfires how many suburban neighborhoods will have been flooded out how many suburbs will have been blown away. Super storms. Here one voters crisis of la
