Sudan: Weapons

Asked by Wendy MortonConservativeForeign, Commonwealth and Development OfficeTabled Answered 15 January 2025UIN 22276

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions he has had with his international counterparts on the provision of weapons to Sudan.

Answered by Anneliese Dodds

The Foreign Secretary regularly raises the Sudan conflict with his international counterparts, including UK concern over violations of the UN arms embargo. We have regularly condemned, including in the UN Security Council, the flow of external arms into Sudan and urged those who have influence over the parties to use it to bring them to the negotiating table to seek a political resolution to the conflict.
