AKIPRESS.COM - Sudan’s President Omer al-Bashir canceled a planned visit to Kazakhstan on Saturday to attend the Organization of Islamic Cooperation's first summit on science and technology "because of the lower-level of heads of delegations representing the countries participating in the summit," Sudan Tribune reported citing officials at the presidency.

President al-Bashir was supposed to travel to Astana for the two-day Islamic meeting on September 10-11, Foreign Minister Ibrahim Ghandour told reporters earlier.

Now the communication minister of Sudan Tahani Abdallah will lead the delegation to Astana representing al-Bashir.
