Sudan's leader: Meeting with Netanyahu was in our interests

The head of Sudan’s Transitional Sovereign Council, Lt. Gen. Abdel-Fattah Al-Burhan, told the Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper in an interview published on Friday that his February 3 meeting with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu in Uganda came “within the framework of Sudan’s search for national and security interests.”

“During the meeting that took place in Entebbe, Uganda, we stressed the role of the Israeli side in supporting Sudan with regards to the list of state sponsors of terrorism,” Burhan said.
