The Government of Hungary welcomes the formation of South Sudan’s transitional government of national unity, which is an important step in the direction of gradual consolidation.

We trust that the new government will succees in stabilizing the security and economic situation of the country, and will create conditions for refugees to return home. Our aim is to deepen cooperation between the EU and South Sudan and thus also facilitate the improvement of the humanitarian situation. In accordance with Hungary's Southward Opening policy, the Government of Hungary is keen to develop closer relations with South Sudan, particularly in the field of economic cooperation.
