that means a lot to sudanese government because the country has been cut off from foreign investment largely because of being on the list of states sponsoring terrorism and this has resulted in a shortage of hard currency which makes it very hard for the country to import basic commodities such as fuel and we and that has resulted in shortages in a petrol stations and bakeries it's also lead to inflation of more than 200 percent making many from families many of them who live below the poverty line struggle to get 3 meals a day now sudan says that this also means that the u.s. administration has. d. link the issue of being delisted to normalizing ties with israel that is something that the u.s. has been pushing sudan to do since u.s. secretary of state my point was that it the country in august in the previous august now sudan says that it is not in the position to actually normalize ties

with israel because it is not a mandated government or an elected government let's not forget that this government is a coalition government from made up of various political parties with various leanings and different leanings and the prime minister has to redo the stated that he is concerned about the stability of the transition should he make the step of normalizing and that until a mandated or elected government is in place seeking such a move will be hard but al-jazeera has also spoken to senior officials who say that that does not mean normalizing is of the table that's because normalizing comes with an economic package economic assistance that the country is in dire need of so while there are steps they could to move sudan off the list of states sponsoring terrorism so dense economy is still dire and this means that the country has to look for ways to revive its economy and tell the impact of being delisted takes place. so what led to saddam being branded a state sponsor of terror for 27 years while the u.s. blacklisted it in 1993 when omagh bashir was president at the time he was accused

of supporting on groups including offering sanctuary to osama bin laden the leader of al-qaeda the group was behind 2 attacks on u.s. embassies in kenya and tanzania in 1998 the 335000000 dollars from khartoum would compensate victims and families of those bombings so don is one of 4 countries still considered sponsors of terror the others are iran north korea and syria the designation as cripple their economies sudan's removal would pave the way for the transitional government to access urgently needed debt relief and foreign loans well let's speak some more about this not to swim on bondo who is an expert on sudan and senior adviser at the century his eyes kite from new jersey thank you so much mr bondo for being with us so president saying you know we moved on from the list of state sponsors of terrorism how big of a breakthrough is this for this for so don and how big of a political boost is it for the transitional government in khartoum. little

additional galo to the letter a lot of political pressure because of the difficulties in the supply of decisions from what is the population or deflection syndrome of the economic crisis in the government doesn't help if it's from president bashir it's also a symptom of saddam's financial isolation a muslim just could be is the maist who learns of being in or returned from the cold and rehabilitated instead of earliest jews to be under the regime of issues between the a member of the nations access international financial institutions their. rescheduling and unforgiveness from international financial institutions. it's very promising economy industry natural resources so for all the citizens this is a movie important and really. want to decision that has happened today but what

impact will it have on the near term economic crisis so don is facing today ominous and on going to be seeing western financial backing and investment partnerships or is that still a long way off you think. it's going to be a long way off because the will of sudan is not the end of the problems of the economy. so don't have the little discouraging investment environment with several leading corporations that being affiliated with its security agencies are really the police the city the national security and the her support forces and this makes investments not on a lean little shield of wealth for private in this the sewers and domestic or international a source of don't really has to deal up its investment environment has to clean up the rule of law for foreign investments and there is

a particular favorite it is interested on corporations which by the way you know are the ones 'd the responsible for much of the economic difficulties of sudan today right because they continue to deny the government of prime minister hun do assisted the public resources they control right now live in a country this is untrue then you are what you're telling a school in deep economic crisis right now so the 335000000 dollars that the government has agreed to pay to us victims of terrorist attacks where's that come from. prime minister under a last minute statement on national t.v. and read you explain in the money you will then buy the fairest shipments of gold from the countries who channels. therefore it was done by tightening the belt share the wealth of sudan's indian. prices do a lot you know

a bit of reward as who says to normalization the us under the international financial community right now the deal is said not to be linked to saddam normalizing relations with israel which is something of a trump administration is very keen on of course could this really be the case still could this have been agreed without khartoum at some point having to normalize relations with television. the issue was discussed definitely. in the rush by the company news station during this presidential election campaign initially went on this has been a real challenge to normalize with israel it was. not an easy decision for the government because of the differences of opinion between 'd the civilian component and the military component the military in the person of the head of the close. counsel and his deputy. who

are on one side only civilian government and its political constituency all the other you know with different approaches to this and that's wiser than could not do this how well they're all we understand there are a lot of promises being made of economic incentives in the linz us to download these to you know normalizing with israel and name the issue even unspoken. you know for the period after the us elections thank you so much for your insight thank you. so non-expert and senior adviser the sentry joining us from new jersey thank you so much of. my countries across europe are taking emergency action in a desperate effort to stop the rapid spread of coronavirus the number of new infections is surging globally there now 14000000 cases and the world health organization is warning that colder weather were made the next few months especially difficult in the northern hemisphere and reports. in ireland as

a world affected worst affected country present trump has repeatedly criticized the top infectious disease expert in the u.s. and to his people are tired of hearing about the virus in other world news e.u.s. has charged 6 former russian military officers for what it calls the most destructive and disruptive global cyber attacks the justice department says hackers targeted events like the winter olympics the french presidential elections and also cost american businesses nearly a $1000000000.00 the office is a part of the same unit that prosecutors say had interfered in the 2016 u.s. presidential election though they have not been charged for it no country has weaponized its cyber capabilities as maliciously and it responsibly as russia wantonly causing unprecedented collateral damage to pursue small tactical advantages and fits of spite. the defendants in this case were all members of the

military unit 74455 of the russian main intelligence directorate known as the g.r.u. . the department previously charged members of this same unit also known to cyber security researchers as the sandworm team for their role in russia's efforts to interfere with the 2016 u.s. elections our white house correspondent kimberly how can't has more from washington d.c. . the truck administration's justice department saying that these alleged hackers in their twenty's and thirty's are facing some pretty serious charges not only computer fraud but also conspiracy now they're part of a group that has been called sand worm but it's also known intelligence and defense circles by other names as well tele bots voodoo bear hades some of the attacks of they're alleged to have put together not only the attack on ukraine's power grid but also behind the mocking ransomware virus not pacha which is known to have

caused billions of dollars in damage now what's significant about all of this is the department of justice as you heard that clip there saying that essentially what russia has done has weaponized its cyber capabilities for malicious intent and that is why the united states is taking action because the feeling is is that essentially anyone who was in any way slighted or felt slighted in russia by another group was targeted by these hackers now apparently it's a broad list of targets it hits the financial sector even athletes as well as financial political is the other one that i was looking for and what it just as official says essentially that these are the most dangerous and aggressive groups out there and what's really important to know particularly when it comes to the issue of that ransomware not pecha is that we've seen sanctions from the united states even from you with regard to that but we've never ever seen individuals

charge now that has changed with these charges coming from the department of justice in the united states. still ahead on al-jazeera armenians volunteer to help defend their towns against azerbaijan as a battle for nagorno-karabakh rages on and from bad to worse why lebanon's economic crisis has led to a shortage in medicine in pharmacies across the country. well the 1st snow has fallen from the plain states new england there is more to come this bit of dippy is quite cold we're down to single figures nasa minneapolis on tuesday will see sleet and then probably snow is fairly heavy as well but then heading up through ontario missing toronto toronto sees warming weather with that rain on the frontal system and then behind it temps has risen
