President Kiir calls for ceasefire in Sudan conflict
|
[SUDANTRIBUNE] South Sudan President Salva Kiir has urged an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in the ongoing conflict in neighbouring Sudan, citing the deteriorating security and humanitarian situation caused by nine months of fighting.
President Kiir made the call during a meeting with Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, the commander of Sudan’s paramilitary Rapid Support Force, on Saturday after participating in a summit organized by the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), a regional grouping of eight member countries.
The South Sudanese leader used the meeting to reiterate his administration’s commitment to supporting the regional-led peace process as the only viable path to achieving a lasting peace and resolving the conflict in Sudan. He also urged the paramilitary group’s leader to embrace peaceful dialogue and work towards a peaceful solution to the underlying causes of the war.
President Kiir also called for the establishment of humanitarian corridors to ensure access to assistance and services for people trapped in remote areas of Sudan due to the conflict.
