May 21, 2011 (KHARTOUM) – An Egyptian delegation arrived in Khartoum
today for talks on the ’four freedoms’ agreement that was signed
between the two countries in 2004 but has yet to be activated.
Sudan official news agency (SUNA) said that the delegation is headed
by foreign minister’s assistant for Sudan’s affairs Mohamed Morsi and
Al-Wakeel Hatim Bashat who was described as the official in charge of
Sudan’s dossier.
Morsi said that his visit aims at following up on the implementation
of the ’four freedoms’ agreement particularly after the January
revolution which ousted the regime of Egyptian president Mohamed Hosni
Mubarak.
The accord signed between Mubarak and president Omer Hassan Al-Bashir
grants Sudanese and Egyptians the freedom of movement, residence,
ownership and work in either country.
However, the Egyptian authorities at the time were reluctant to let
the agreement go into force for concern over an influx of Sudanese
citizens.
