PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Sudan: Terrorism (27 February 2020)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what steps he is taking to help the Sudanese Government seek its removal from the United States' list of state sponsors of terrorism.

Asked by:
Dame Harriett Baldwin (Conservative)

Answer

Sudan's removal from the U.S. State Sponsor of Terrorism List, a bilateral matter between the US and Sudan, is an important step in opening the way to international financial institution engagement on economic reform and debt relief. The UK supports Sudan's transition, and its demonstration of meaningful political reform as it moves through the de-listing process.
