End of the pandemic is close to the 23 March election; will have an effect. Sudan normalizing ties with Israel: excellent news. Only four years ago, [looked impossible]. Need to follow the [discussions] step by step, is complicated. The Qatari-Saudi [alliance] is something I’m [not sure I can comment on].
