lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Sudan is the largest country in sub-Saharan Africa, the crossroads at which the Arab and African worlds meet, as well as a mosaic of a great many diverse ethnic groups. As provided in the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, a referendum took place in January 2011 which represented the final stage of the process leading to the independence of South Sudan from North Sudan. South Sudan is an area with approximately 10 million inhabitants, covering almost a quarter of the land area of Sudan as currently constituted and possessing about three-quarters of its oil reserves. It is a state that will have to cope with huge geographical and infrastructural limitations, without an outlet to the sea and with a practically non-existent transport network connecting it to northern Sudan, where the oil treatment and transit plant is located. The challenges the South faces are many, beginning with laying the foundations of its own institutions and improving the socio-economic and security frameworks. I should note, however, that intervention in this country remains a priority for the European Union. Therefore, in 2010, the Council accorded Sudan a special allocation of EUR 150 million for the period 2011-2013. The European Union must mobilise the entire panoply of instruments at its disposal to support South Sudan in the delicate post-referendum phase. At the same time, we need to maintain a balanced approach in dealing with the North and the South of the country, with particular attention being paid to the needs of the South in terms of institution building and governance. European Union aid to South Sudan should be commensurate with what the new state can effectively absorb. We must avoid the situation in which future funding flows to Juba end up being improperly deployed or, even worse, feeding the existing high level of corruption."@en1
