Relationship context
Overview
New Zealand has supported humanitarian relief for people affected by conflict in Sudan through international aid channels and implements United Nations sanctions relating to Sudan. These measures reflect limited practical engagement alongside sanctions obligations. Information about direct Sudanese government cooperation with New Zealand is insufficient to assess the relationship from Sudan’s perspective.
Major uncertainties
- The scope and continuity of New Zealand’s humanitarian assistance to Sudan are unclear.
- Details of Sudanese government cooperation with New Zealand are limited.
