Sudan Officially Repeals Law On Boycotting Israel

KHARTOUM, April 20 – The Sudanese government on Monday officially approved a bill cancelling the law on boycotting Israel, reported Xinhua news agency.

“Today a draft bill abolishing the law on boycotting Israel was approved in a joint meeting for the Sovereign Council and the Council of Ministers,” said Justice Minister Nasr-Eddin Abdul-Bari on his Twitter account.

Earlier in the day, Chairman of Sudan’s Sovereign Council Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan chaired a joint meeting for the council and the cabinet at the presidential palace in the capital Khartoum.

The abolished law, which was enacted in 1958, forbids dealing and trading with Israel, with a penalty of up to 10-year imprisonment for violators.

On Oct 23, 2020, Sudan and Israel announced the end of mutual enmity and agreed to establish diplomatic and trade relations.
