More than 20 years after the 1998 bombings on US embassies in East Africa, the Trump administration is closing in on a deal with the government of Sudan to settle claims owed to hundreds of victims.
“We have reached a common understanding with Sudan,” said US Assistant Secretary of African Affairs Tibor Nagy during a press conference on Thursday.
“This final agreement will reflect Sudan’s agreement to pay — it would include compensation in connection with claims relating also to non-US nationals killed and injured in the embassy bombings.”
