The
United States on Sunday invited General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, head of Sudan's sovereign council, to visit
Washington, the council said, highlighting warmer bilateral ties since the army toppled President Omar al-Bashir last year.
U.S
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who invited Burhan for the visit during a phone call, said in December that the two countries planned to begin exchanging ambassadors after a 23-year hiatus.
Washington and Khartoum had been at odds for decades, but their relations have improved since Bashir's overthrow in April 2019 and the formation of a civilian transitional government four months later.
