Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the most recent round of discussions in the UK–Sudan Strategic Dialogue.

The Strategic Dialogue provides an important platform to raise issues of bilateral interest between the UK and Sudan. At the Fifth Round, held in Khartoum on 24 April, we discussed a range of issues with senior Sudanese Government representatives, including the peace process, human rights, development, migration, trade and investment, and counter-terrorism.

Both the British Government and the Government of Sudan welcomed the continued progress made since the last round of the UK-Sudan Strategic Dialogue in October, and agreed to continue work jointly on issues of mutual interest.

The Communique of the Fifth Round of the Strategic Dialogue is available on the British Government’s website.
