To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what steps he proposes to take with his EU colleagues to impose sanctions on the government of Sudan. (265476)

The EU already maintains an arms embargo covering all of Sudan, which has been in place since 2004. The EU also imposes financial and travel restrictions against four individuals who have been designated by the UN Sanctions Committee on Sudan.
