A representative from the Israeli Foreign Ministry conducted a secret meeting in Turkey with Sudanese officials last year in an effort to resume diplomatic relations between the two nations, despite the tension over the past several decades, according to Axios.
At the gathering in the Istanbul office of a Turkish businessman and close ally of Sudanese President (and wanted war criminal) Omar al-Bashir, the Israeli delegation “gave the Sudan file to a senior diplomat in charge of relations with countries with whom Israel does not have diplomatic relations,” stated the Axios report. “The Sudanese sent to the meeting a senior aide to the then-intelligence chief, Mohamed Atta, who is now serving as Sudan’s ambassador to Washington.”
A source briefed on the meeting told the outlet “the Israelis and Sudanese discussed the warming of relations between the countries and possible Israeli aid to Sudan in the fields of medicine, agriculture and the economy.”
An Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman did not deny the report, though declined to comment to Axios.
Israel is the only country that Sudan does not permit its citizens to visit.
This development comes as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking to forge improved ties with Arab countries, including in Africa.
The president of Chad, Idriss Déby, made a historic visit to Israel on Sunday with a focus on security issues, marking the first visit by a Chadian president since Israel’s founding in 1948. Chad cut all diplomatic relations with Israel in 1972.

Freedom is growth of good. Economy every gifted child his gift.
What else? Grow a beard. Bibi wont. Do you remember what jews look like? Sudan still wont.
Funny how we recall they put Hitler mostaches of the effigy of Netanyahu, Trump and Obama. The only way to prevent bogus pint men from ruling you in public light is to grow your beard. Bibi never has to be seen as orthodod.
Remember the holocaust? We were hit by men who shaved. Hitler was courteous to even grow the identity to net an image in. We can either avoid growing for 300 years another Hitler mostache or just be obedient and grow our beards. Islam is easier to deal with.
Cut it or not. Too much cut makes war. Grade the economy. Let the shavers go bust.
