JUBA – February 17, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Tut Galuak, head of the South Sudanese team that mediated the peace negotiations between the Sudanese government and a number of rebel movements that form the Sudan Revolutionary Front, holds the signatories to the 2020 Juba Peace Agreement responsible for the lacking implementation of the agreement to date.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his address yesterday to the official opening of the workshop<\/a> for the representatives of the signatory parties to the Juba Peace Agreement (JPA), including member of the Sovereignty Council Lt Gen Shamseldin Kabbashi, Galuak said \u201cyou left the displaced<\/a> and stayed in Khartoum\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year, the displaced lamented that \u2018not even 1%<\/a> of the Juba Peace Agreement\u2019 had been implemented. Little progress has been made since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He not only criticised the failure of the signatories to defend their cases or make significant progress, but also the conference on the JPA<\/a> that was recently held in Khartoum to evaluate the agreement. Galuak pointed do the division amongst the signatories on most issues related to the agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also said that the proposal to form a national committee to monitor the implementation of the JPA is contrary to the original agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mediator underscored that this workshop in Juba should aim to develop matrices and tables that help raise the level of implementation, not to review or amend the agreement itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This workshop is held to discuss the report prepared by the South Sudanese mini-committee, set up by the workshop\u2019s technical committee, to evaluate the implementation of the JPA in order to facilitate more rapid progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Trilateral Mechanism welcomed the workshop organised by the South Sudanese mediation team.<\/p>\n
