"I voted in favour of this resolution. The Southern Sudan Referendum took place on 9-15 January 2011, with an overwhelming majority voting to establish an independent state of South Sudan. South Sudan is expected formally to declare its independence on 9 July 2011. The European Parliament fully respects the outcome of the referendum as the expression of the democratic will of the people of South Sudan. I welcome the European Parliament’s call for the government of South Sudan to enact policies on foreign investment in the interest of the population, so that foreign investment in natural resources benefits the development of the domestic economy in order to combat poverty. Money earmarked by the European Union for development aid should be used to support basic services, notably education and health, agriculture, food security and institutional capacity building, in order to ensure the development of South Sudan as a modern, pluralistic and democratic state, based on the principles of the rule of law and respect for human rights."@en1
