U.S. seeks to lift UN sanctions on Sudan: Pompeo
2020-11-04
[SUDANTRIBUNE] The U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo revealed that Washington is working with members of the United Security Council (UNSC) towards lifting long-standing sanctions imposed on Sudan.

In a statement released today Pompeo explained the reasons behind the renewal of national emergency with respect to Sudan by President Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
"This notice maintains certain Sudan-related authorities, which the United States relies on to implement our sanctions obligations under UN Security Council resolutions related to the conflict in Darfur," the top U.S. diplomat said.

"However,
women are made to be loved, not understood...
it does not reflect negatively on our improved bilateral relationship with Sudan or on the performance of the civilian-led transitional government and does not have any impact on the decision or procedures to rescind Sudan’s State Sponsor of Terrorism (SST) designation" he added.

The national emergency declaration is part of the powers conferred on U.S. presidents under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) which allows them to "regulate international commerce" when invoking such an emergency is in response to a perceived threat against the US.
