CAIRO (Reuters) - The United States will consider new ways to remove Sudan from its list of state sponsors of terrorism if it sees a fundamental change in its government and a commitment not to support terrorism, a State Department official said.

The U.S. government added Sudan to its list of terrorism in 1993 over allegations that then-President Omar al-Bashir's government was supporting terrorism. The Islamist Bashir was toppled last week by the military after three decades in power.
