On 18 July 2011, the Council adopted Decision 2011/423/CFSP concerning restrictive measures against Sudan and South Sudan and repealing Common Position 2005/411/CFSP which extended the arms embargo against Sudan to cover South Sudan.
On 24 November 2011, the Council adopted Regulation (EU) No 1215/2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 131/2004 imposing certain restrictive measures in respect of Sudan which extended the scope of application of the arms embargo to South Sudan.
The Council is preparing a new decision separating the measures concerning South Sudan and integrating them into a single legal act. The decision will also provide for restrictions on admission and the freezing of funds and economic resources of persons obstructing the political process in South Sudan, including by acts of violence or violations of ceasefire agreements, as well as persons responsible for serious violations of human rights in South Sudan.
Further action by the Union is needed in order to implement this decision.
The High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission should make a proposal for a Regulation concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in South Sudan.
