KHARTOUM, Sha'ban 19, 1436, Jun 6, 2015, SPA -- Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir announced a new government with changes to the defence, foreign affairs and oil portfolios, state television said on Saturday, days after the start of his new presidential term, Reuters reported. Mohamed Zayed takes over the oil ministry, while Ibrahim Ghandour becomes Sudan's top diplomat. Lieutenant-General Mostafa Osman Abeed was appointed acting defence minister, state television said. The reshuffle could mark a shift for Sudan, which has long laboured under a raft of U.N. and bilateral sanctions, including from the United States. -- SPA 23:25 LOCAL TIME 20:25 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
