The African Union (AU) has lifted its suspension of Sudan's
membership in the bloc, ending a three-month freeze that had been in
place pending the installation of a civilian-led government after the
removal of long-term President Omar al-Bashir.
The move on Friday Sep 06,2019 came after Sudan's newly appointed Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok
formed his first cabinet as part of a three-year transitional
power-sharing agreement between Sudan's military, civilian parties and
protest groups.
The AU's Peace and Security Council said in a
tweet that the pan-African body has decided "to lift the suspension of
the participation of #Sudan in the activities of the #AU, now that
#Sudan established a civilian-led Government".
