Intel: Congress throws Sudan-Israel normalization deal lifeline
Sudan is to get $700 million in assistance and $230 million in preliminary debt relief, but 9/11 victims can continue their lawsuit against Khartoum.
The US Congress passed a spending package on Monday that may give new life to the administration’s initiative to convince Sudan’s leaders to formally establish diplomatic ties with Israel.
Monday’s omnibus bill included $700 million in assistance and $230 million in debt relief for Sudan and, if signed into law, would restore the country’s sovereign immunity to certain terror lawsuits in US courts.
