Trump Admin Working to Broker Normalization Deal Between Sudan and Israel
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The U.S. is ramping up pressure on Sudan to become the next country to
normalize relations with Israel, but negotiations have reportedly

happen before Election Day. The United Arab Emirates and Bahrain both
signed U.S.-brokered agreements to normalize relations with Israel
earlier this month at the White House.
