I understand these wars are being financed and that very complex financial networks are involved. Has any effort been made by the European Union to investigate these networks and intervene to stop the money driving these wars? The Tánaiste mentioned these were proxy wars, which leads to the question who is behind it. What countries are fighting this proxy war on both sides? Who is supporting the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudan army? Will the Tánaiste comment on the impact on the seven neighbouring countries? They are now putting up with and having to deal with refugees fleeing Sudan. As I said, 7.5 million people are displaced. Will the Tánaiste also comment on the aid needed? From what I have read, about 49 million people need aid in Sudan at the moment.
