Sudan: Politics and Government

Asked by Wendy MortonConservativeForeign, Commonwealth and Development OfficeTabled Answered 5 June 2025UIN 53513

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what further multilateral steps he plans to take following the London-Sudan Conference on 15 April 2025 to support a political solution in Sudan.

Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer

The Foreign Secretary will continue to use all levers at his disposal to address Sudan's brutal conflict. As part of these efforts, the Foreign Secretary will engage with a range of multilateral partners to improve humanitarian access, to promote the protection of civilians and to secure an end to the fighting. Next month, the UK will, for the first time, join a meeting of the Consultative Group, which comprises representatives from the African Union, the European Union, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, the League of Arab States and the United Nations, to discuss joint efforts for peace and efforts to bring both parties to the conflict to the negotiating table.
