Many states have recognised South Sudan upon independence, or announced planning to do so. Sudan was the first to do so on 8 July 2011, 1 day prior to independence. Four other states followed suit on 8 July. Over 25 countries had recognised the country on 9 July, including all permanent members of the [[United Nations Security Council]].<ref name="france">{{cite web |url=http://www.20minutes.fr/ledirect/755873/france-reconnait-sud-soudan |title=La France reconnaît le Sud-Soudan |accessdate=9 July 2011 |publisher=20 Minutes |author=Reuters |language=French}}</ref><ref name=UK>{{cite web|title=South Sudan: The birth of a nation|url=http://www.fco.gov.uk/en/news/latest-news/?view=News&id=628419182|date=9 July 2011|publisher=[[Foreign and Commonwealth Office]]}}</ref><ref name="kremlin1">{{cite web|title=Поздравительное послание Президенту Республики Южный Судан Сальваторе Кииру Маярдиту|url=http://www.kremlin.ru/news/11882|date=9 July 2011|publisher=[[President of Russia]]|language=Russian}}</ref><ref name="United States">{{cite web|url=http://iipdigital.usembassy.gov/st/english/texttrans/2011/07/20110709070453tegdirb0.1807454.html?CP.rss=true#axzz1RblFU2Ag |title=Obama on U.S. Recognition of South Sudan’s Independence &#124; IIP Digital |publisher=Iipdigital.usembassy.gov |date= |accessdate=9 July 2011}}</ref><ref name=China>{{cite web|title=China recognizes independence of South Sudan|url=http://www1.chinadaily.com.cn/china/9 July 2011/content_12869896.htm|date=9 July 2011|publisher=[[China Daily]]}}</ref>

South Sudan was admitted in the UN on 14 July 2011 without a vote<ref>[http://www.un.org/depts/dhl/resguide/r65.shtml Resolutions adopted by the General Assembly at its 65th session]</ref> or objections risen by its members.<ref>[http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs//2011/ga11114.doc.htm Sixty-fifth General Assembly Plenary 108th Meeting (AM)]</ref><ref>[http://daccess-ods.un.org/access.nsf/Get?Open&DS=A/65/PV.108&Lang=E Sixty-fifth General Assembly Plenary 108th Meeting official records]</ref>

Both before and after South Sudan admission to the UN many states have issued official explicit statements about its [[diplomatic recognition]] and some have established [[diplomatic relations]] with it. In less than half an year the number of recognitions reached over 115 and the number of relations established over 40:

Revision as of 10:16, 31 January 2012

The foreign relations of South Sudan are the relations between the Republic of South Sudan and sovereign states and international organisations. The establishment of the relationships followed the formation of the South Sudanese state on 9 July 2011. Sudan became the first state in the world to recognise South Sudan.

Foreign policy

In the immediate aftermath of the country's independence, South Sudan's foreign policy prerogative was seen as a challenge in the quest to balance relations between the West, other African states and the Arab states.[1] Since independence, South Sudan has sought to shed its reliance on North Sudan, reportedly planning to introduce the Swahili language and orient itself toward East Africa.[2][3][4]

Chronology of relations

Foreign relations of South Sudan
  recognition and diplomatic relations
  recognition

Many states have recognised South Sudan upon independence, or announced planning to do so. Sudan was the first to do so on 8 July 2011, 1 day prior to independence. Four other states followed suit on 8 July. Over 25 countries had recognised the country on 9 July, including all permanent members of the United Nations Security Council.[5][6][7][8][9]

South Sudan was admitted in the UN on 14 July 2011 without a vote[10] or objections risen by its members.[11][12]

Both before and after South Sudan admission to the UN many states have issued official explicit statements about its diplomatic recognition and some have established diplomatic relations with it. In less than half an year the number of recognitions reached over 115 and the number of relations established over 40:

Representation in South Sudan

The United States upgraded its Juba consulate to an embassy on 9 July 2011.,[211] as did France.[212] Also Sudan has announced that it plans to open an embassy in Juba, upon independence,[213] while Egypt has announced it intends to convert its existing consulate in Juba into a full embassy.[17][214] The United Kingdom has opened an embassy in South Sudan, as well.[215]

On 16 September 2011, the ambassadors of the United Kingdom and Norway presented their credentials, the first to do so.[216] Credentials were presented on 15 November of that year by Chinese, German and Kenyan ambassadors.[217]

According to Indian officials, New Delhi will upgrade its consulate in Juba to an embassy and appoint an ambassador to South Sudan.[218]

International organisations

South Sudan became a member of the United Nations on 14 July 2011.[219] It joined the African Union on 27 July 2011.[220]

South Sudan has also either applied or is in the process of applying to the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa,[221] the Commonwealth of Nations,[222] the East African Community,[223] the Intergovernmental Authority on Development,[221] the International Monetary Fund,[224] and the World Bank.[225] South Sudan has also been assured membership in the Arab League,[226] should it decide to pursue membership, though it could also opt for observer status.[227] it may also seek membership in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, which has expressed interest in giving South Sudan admission[228] despite not being a majority Muslim state.

On 24 July 2011, President Salva Kiir told the Speaker of the East African Legislative Assembly that he hoped the EAC will consider expediting South Sudan's accession to the supranational organisation. South Sudan is considered very likely to join the EAC, but an exact timetable for admission has not yet been mooted publicly.[229]

International organisation Status
African Union (AU) The African Union welcomed South Sudan as its 54th member state.
 Arab League The Arab League wishes South Sudan to become a member state.[230] However, South Sudan does not have a majority Arab population and in South Sudan there is strong opposition to joining.[231]
 East African Community (EAC) South Sudan's membership in the EAC is favoured by all members.[232]
 International Olympic Committee (IOC) A South Sudan committee has yet to apply and might not be able to finish the process in view of the many requirements. South Sudan athletes may be able to compete in the 2012 Olympic games "under other colours".[233]
 United Nations (UN) On July 14, South Sudan became 193rd UN Member State.[234]

Individual states

Egypt

Essam Sharaf, Prime Minister of Egypt after the Arab Spring-inspired revolution in 2011 made his first foreign visit to Khartoum and Juba in the lead-up to South Sudan's secession.[235]

Israel

Relations between the two states commenced with Israel's recognition of South Sudan a day after its independence[236] and South Sudan announcing the following week its intention to establish full diplomatic relations with Israel.[237] On 28 July 2011, it was announced that full diplomatic ties had been established between the two countries.[238] This is considered a significant boon to Israel, as Sudan does not have diplomatic relations with Israel and does not recognise Israeli sovereignty.[237]

Economic ties show the most potential. As of 23 July 2011, several Israeli companies are already in talks for various business deals.[239] Israel is host to thousands of refugees from South Sudan, who are now ready to return to their native country.[240]

Sudan

Since independence relations with Sudan have been under negotiation. Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir first announced, in January 2011, that dual citizenship in the North and the South would be allowed,[241] but upon the independence of South Sudan he retracted the offer. He has also suggested an EU-style confederation.[242]

Uganda

Prior to independence relations between the two states were fostered through cultural contacts such as the presence of South Sudanese students in Uganda. As independence approaches the two states started to enhance their economic ties. However, the Lord's Resistance Army's presence in South Sudan was a stumbling block.
