Khartoum restores relations with Tunisia

    NAIROBI

    Sudan and Tunisia have agreed to restore international relations and exchange diplomatic representation as a result of contacts established during recent summit meetings in Egypt and Cuba, according to Sudanese radio. Foreign Minister Mustafa Osman Ismail said the move was an important event and would support the two countries positions’ in regional and international fora, particularly with Tunisia currently being a member of the UN Security Council, it said. The restoration of relations with Tunisia was the last step in reestablishing diplomatic ties with all the Arab countries, he added. The two sides had agreed on a policy of mutual respect, non-interference in the internal affairs of the other and adherence to the Arab League’s charter, a joint communique quoted by Sudanese television stated.
