The European Union–Sudan relations are the international relations between the European Union (EU) and the Republic of the Sudan.
History
European Economic Community (EEC) cooperation with Sudan—a member of the Organisation of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (ACP)—ran under the aegis of the Lomé Convention.[1] Following the 1989 Sudanese coup d'état and ensuing violation of human rights the European Community suspended development aid in March 1990.[2] In absence of a legal framework for development, bar the humanitarian assistance funds provided via ECHO,[3] relations were put on hold.[2] In 1999, dialogue resumed.[2]
Following the
EU Commission pledged 312 million euros to help crisis-stricken Sudan in addition to the economic support offered by the individual EU member states.[5]
