Pompeo: Sudan removal from terrorism list step for greater collaboration

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Monday said Washington has now officially removed Sudan from a list of state sponsors of terrorism, adding that the move represented a fundamental change for the two countries' bilateral ties towards greater cooperation.
"This achievement was made possible by the efforts of Sudan's civilian-led transitional government to chart a bold new course away from the legacy of the Bashir regime and, in particular, to meet the statutory and policy criteria for rescission," Pompeo said in a statement.
