Sudan: Conflict Resolution
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reports of senior officials of the National Congress Party in Sudan, including President al-Bashir, discussing blackmail and other tactics to achieve a settlement in South Kordofan and the Blue Nile; and whether such reports will influence their engagement with the government of Sudan.
- Answer
-
We are aware of documents purporting to show records of private conversations that have been circulating on social media in Sudan. It is not possible to ascertain the veracity of these documents. The UK continues to press all sides to engage with AU-led international mediation efforts, and to negotiate in good faith to reach a lasting peace agreement in Sudan's conflict areas.
