Sudanese PM says great talks with Pompeo, mum on Israel peace

Sudanese leader Abdollah Hamdok says on Twitter that he had a “direct & transparent conversation regarding delisting Sudan of #SSTL, bilateral relations & US government support,” referring to a state sponsors of terror blacklist.

Hamdok, who leads the civilian side of the transition government, does not mention normalization talks with Israel, which are generally being pushed by  Gen. Abdel-Fattah Burhan, the head of the military-led ruling sovereign council.

Great meeting with @SecPompeo, we had direct & transparent conversation regarding delisting Sudan of #SSTL, bilateral relations & US government support to the CLTG.
I continue to look forward to positive tangible steps in supporting the glorious Sudanese revolution. pic.twitter.com/BiXOcZhGmk

Pompeo is set to meet with Burhan as well on Tuesday. His office does not immediately release a statement on the talks.
