Ambassador Manuel Muller, who paid a courtesy visit to the First Vice President Machar today, July 26, 2021, came to inform him on his imminent transfer after having accomplished his mission in South Sudan.

In a statement seen by Nyamilepedia, the meeting focuses on the Revitalized Peace agreement and particularly on Chapter two that talks about security arrangements.

” H.E the First Vice President has briefed the German Ambassador on the progress made so far as well as the challenges which are still being faced in its implementation, including the command structure and graduation of the unified forces”, Stated in a statement released by the Press Unit of the First Vice President.

According to Machar’s Press Unit, the duo also discussed the establishment of the Hybrid Court and how the Minister of Justice can engage the African Union to expedite the process.

” The meeting also discussed issues to do with establishment of the Hybrid Court for South Sudan and that the cabinet in a resolution has directed the minister of Justice to lead a technical committee to engage with the AU [African Union] to establish the Hybrid Court for South Sudan”, it added.

Since support of the International Community for South Sudan is declining gradually, Machar who doubles as leader of the main opposition group in the country reiterates his call for International Community to continue supporting the peace agreement in the country.

Unlike his boss, who is concerned about the arms embargoes, Machar appeals for non-food items and medicines.

“H.E Dr Machar has called on the international community to support the peace agreement by providing non-lethal items such as food, medicine, etc”, Machar said

The First Vice President further reiterated that the issue of Security Arrangements remains one of the challenging concerns that are derailing the Revitalized Peace Agreement.

The forces of the SPLA (IO) have been at training camps for more than a year now and so far no graduation has taken place despite promises by President Kiir to graduate the Unified Forces.
