KHARTOUM (Reuters) - France's foreign minister announced 60 million euros (£53.1 million) in aid for Sudan's transitional authorities during a visit to Khartoum on Monday, while offering to help Sudan rebuild relations with international lenders and tackle its foreign debt.
"We are in a new Sudan, a Sudan which is at a key moment in its history, and France is at the side of this new Sudan," Jean-Yves Le Drian told reporters, paying tribute to peaceful protests that led to the ouster of former President Omar al-Bashir in April.
