The United States has removed Sudan from the list of states sponsoring terrorism.
"US is taking Sudan off the list of State sponsors of terror because of its cooperation in this regard," state department spokesman Richard Boucher said in Washington.
However, he criticized Sudan for its lack of cooperation in permitting international food supplies to reach Darfur, where the government is fighting the local population.
He said that the Sudanese 'have been playing games' and denying permits to humanitarian workers to help the people of Darfur.
