"I am concerned as I watch the situation develop in Sudan. It is clear that the growing conflict is motivated by both economic and religious factors. I remember well the joy of the people of South Sudan after the referendum on independence. It was a day of rejoicing for them but, as time has shown, it was a day which brought neither calm nor discipline to their aggressive neighbour in the north – not even for a moment. The attacks from the northern neighbour began only a few days after the result of the referendum was announced. Fortunately, the situation has not yet deteriorated into one of full-scale conflict, and the feuding parties have begun attempts at dialogue. The EU should become an active mediator in the conflict and should press the UN and the African Union to send peacekeeping forces to the contested Abyei area and also to monitor the withdrawal of South Sudanese and Sudanese forces in accordance with the provisions adopted by both parties on 20 June 2011. I think that the resolution on which we are voting represents exactly the line which should be adopted by EU diplomacy."@en1
