British Foreign Minister James Cleverly will leave New Zealand Friday and cut his Pacific tour short, his office said, as he focuses on coordinating Britain's response to the Sudan crisis.
Cleverly had been scheduled to meet with Samoan officials and New Zealand Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahuta in Samoa on Friday before undertaking a bilateral meeting and press briefing Saturday in New Zealand.
Fighting has erupted across Khartoum and at other sites in Sudan this month in a battle between two powerful rival military factions. "The UK is working tirelessly for peace in Sudan. This violence must end," he said on Twitter. "Alongside our international partners, we call for a lasting ceasefire."
