answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/03/2024 answer text <p>There has been recent damage to the oil pipeline that carries oil from South Sudan to Sudan, which has significantly reduced the South Sudanese government's oil production capabilities and subsequently their income. This economic deterioration is exacerbating an already dire humanitarian situation in South Sudan, as food prices and the cost of humanitarian assistance delivery have increased. We are continuing to monitor the impacts of this closely, including on the security and humanitarian situation in both Sudan and South Sudan.</p> answering member constituency Sutton Coldfield answering member printed Mr Andrew Mitchell question first answered 25/03/2024 14:20:25 answering member 1211 label Biography information for Mr Andrew Mitchell

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/03/2024 answer text <p>The UK condemns the recent escalation of violence in Abyei. We released a statement alongside Troika (US, Norway) partners on January 29, to condemn the armed attacks in Abyei and urge the Government of South Sudan to urgently withdraw its troops in line with its commitments under the 2011 Status of Forces Agreement. The United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei's (UNISFA) mandate was renewed in November 2023 and amended to better equip the mission to respond quickly to security incidents and to place greater emphasis on community engagement. The UK is using its position as a permanent member of the Security Council to urge both the government of South Sudan and the de facto Sudanese authorities to ensure UNISFA can fully and effectively implement its mandate. We echo the UN Secretary-General's encouragement for the African Union to intensify its mediation efforts to help reach a political solution for Abyei and we encourage The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) to engage in this process.</p> answering member constituency Sutton Coldfield answering member printed Mr Andrew Mitchell question first answered 22/03/2024 09:01:52 answering member 1211 label Biography information for Mr Andrew Mitchell
