Denmark considers cutting Sudan aid

Denmark is considering whether Sudan's call for the Muslim world to boycott Denmark might have consequences for Danish aid to the African country.

Foreign aid minister Ulla Toernaes said no decision has been taken after Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir's calls during a protest in Khartoum against the reprinting of a cartoon depicting the Prophet Muhammad in Danish newspapers.

President Al-Bashir also said that the Muslim world should boycott Denmark because of the cartoon.
