Thank you for your question, Ms. McPherson.
We are at all the discussion tables, in particular those in IGAD, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development. We are around the table with our partners from the United States or Great Britain, to strengthen the message of peace. We have experts on the subject of Sudan who are monitoring and supporting the African Union authorities at present. Even the African Union has trouble organizing itself when it comes to Sudan. The subject has been allowed to slide from time to time, but the experts have come back to it.
I think a round table has been organized to find a solution with Sudan. That work will happen if and only if the belligerents want to end the conflicts.
We have partners at the United Nations whom we follow, including the person responsible for the Horn of Africa, who is an excellent ally of Canada. In fact, we have met with her regularly. When our senior officials arrived, they met with her to strengthen Canada's position with the aim of finding a solution for Sudan.
Our country still has a lot of credibility at the discussion tables, and so, people listen to what we have to say.
