south sudan, until 2011 was part of sudan. south sudan only got independence from sudan in 2011. as a result, there are still a lot of people of south sudanese origin living in sudan. also, south sudan in 2016 had a pretty awful civil war. a lot of south sudanese went to seek refuge back in khartoum. we are talking about at least 800,000 south sudanese refugees in sudan. right now these people are coming back in a pretty terrible condition. we have been hearing about decisions people have been having to make to leave khartoum. it is the same for these people. we are seeing every day that people are much more vulnerable. some have had to walk part of the way. they have been traveling for seven days to reach the border. >> naturally, we have been focusing on this rather frenetic operation in khartoum. there are of course thousands of sudanese heading for neighboring countries, as we say. one would assume, and you are pre-positioning equipment and supplies in south sudan now ready for thousands more to arrive, how much cooperation are you getting from some of the bigger countries? a

first of all, sudan, what is happening in - all, sudan, what is happening in sudan matters very muchntry which i think many people provides a ray of hope that there could be a democratic transition in sudan, which of course is what the people of macro—8 desperately want, and why they had a revolution four years ago, after many nationwide peaceful protest. and if that happened, but could also perhaps provide a model for the region. as far as the uk is concerned, we do have a close relationship with macro—8, for several reasons, probably the main one is historical reasons, because the uk was a former colonial power between 1898 to 1956, when macro—8 became independent. it set up many of saddam's institutions, and there are still to this day very close to people to people links, and indeed a sizeable sudanese diaspora in the uk, including quite a large number of sudanese doctors who are working as consultants in the national health system. so, the feelings of trust and close relations are very important. and obviously for historical and for current reasons, i think the uk has a special

on a long time in sudan and south sudan and in many other african countries, so keeping track of yourd getting people to register who they are, where they are going and what they are going to do and so on is not an easy balance. in my view, in places like sudan we should know who these people are and the foreign office should be keeping of them, but there will always be individuals who will go to places where they are advised not to go and there will always be individuals who say i am not going to comply with this, i am doing my own business or whatever. you talked about the requirement to sendin you talked about the requirement to send in military people if it comes to that. can you talk to us about the mechanics of that, sending armed forces into another country, how that works and the dangers facing your tricks in that situation. it is complex. _ your tricks in that situation. it is complex. it _ your tricks in that situation. it is complex. it is — your tricks in that situation. it is complex, it is not _ your tricks in that situation. it 3 complex, it is not easy. many of the lis
