Key Sudanese party warns against normalizing ties with Israel

During a conference titled “Normalization with Israel opportunities and costs", Sudan's National Umma Party renewed its stance opposing the deal between Sudan and Israel to normalize tie.
Sudan was the third Arab state after the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain to publicly agree to establish ties with Israel over the past four months.
As observers say, Khartoum did so under considerable pressure from the administration of the outgoing US President Donald Trump, who reportedly demanded that Sudan normalize ties with Israel in exchange for sanctions relief.
Umm Party like many factions representing public opinion in Sudan maintains that the deal is against Sudan’s interests. Earlier, Sudan’s Minister of Information Faisal Mohamed Saleh revealed in an exclusive interview with Press TV that Trump placed Sudan under “heavy pressure” to normalize relations with the occupying regime of Israel.
Sudan is one of the Arab countries that fought wars with Israel, and its capital, Khartoum, witnessed the adoption of an Arab League resolution known as the resolution of the three noes: no peace, no recognition, and no negotiations with Israel.
