<p>The UK’s focus in responding to Cyclone Idai in Zimbabwe is on providing essential
health supplies, hygiene kits and child protection support. We continue to monitor
the situation closely and stand ready to provide further support as needed. The EU
retains sanctions against former President Robert Mugabe, his wife Grace Mugabe, and
the company Zimbabwe Defence Industries. We consider that sanctions have been an appropriate
response to the political violence of the last 15 years. They do no damage to the
wider economy or to the people of Zimbabwe and have no impact on the UK’s relief effort.</p>
