Sudanese leaders today (Saturday) presented opposing positions regarding normalization with Israel, which they set in the United States as a condition for removing the country in deep economic crisis from the list of pro-terrorism countries.

"We must seize the opportunities at home and abroad to get out of the current crisis," General Sovereignty Council leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan said at the opening of an economic conference.

He headed a Sudanese delegation that held talks with U.S. officials in Abu Dhabi this week, but these ended without results.

"We must seize the opportunity to remove Sudan from the list of pro-terrorism countries," stressed al-Burhan, who is in fact the country's de facto leader.

Earlier this year, he held a secret meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Uganda.

On the other hand, Sudanese Prime Minister Abdullah Hamduk said at the conference that Khartoum opposes the link between removing Sudan from the list of terrorism and normalizing it with Israel.

He said he stressed this to US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo during his visit to the country last month.

"The issue needs a deep discussion of the company," he said.

In Washington, it was expected that Sudan, which is trying to reopen to the international community after 30 years of isolation under former dictator Omar al-Bashir, would join the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain and establish official relations with Israel.

However, the situation in Sudan is much more complex.

Unlike the two Gulf states, Sudan was indeed an enemy state during the Islamist regime, Sudanese soldiers fought against IDF forces in the Israeli wars, and Iranian weapons convoys passed through the country to the Gaza Strip.
