Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The President of South Africa has affirmed that the principle of \u201cAfrican solutions for African problems\u201d is actively being implemented in South Sudan.<\/p>\n

President Cyril Ramaphosa made these remarks following his visit to the country last week.<\/p>\n

In a statement directed to South African citizens and obtained by Eye Radio, the South African President emphasizes that the most constructive action his country can take is to encourage the involved parties and support the ongoing peace process.<\/p>\n

He states that it is admirable that the permanent ceasefire continues to hold.<\/p>\n

The President says the parties to the agreement have honoured their commitment to end armed conflict and engender national security by seeking to form a united national defence force through the cantonment and training of former combatants.<\/p>\n

He acknowledged that the political and legal framework that is being implemented outlines the aspirations of the people of South Sudan to bring a permanent end to armed conflict, consolidate democracy and determine their collective destiny.<\/p>\n

\u201cIncluded in the agreement are commitments to adopt a permanent constitution and create unified security services,\u201d Ramaphosa added.<\/p>\n

President Ramaphosa detailed several meetings he held during his visit to Juba in the statement dated April 22, 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring my visit to the capital Juba last week, I met with President Salva Kiir Mayardit, First Vice-President Riek Machar and other South Sudanese political leaders. I also met with representatives of the AU, monitoring bodies and international development organisations,\u201d said Ramaphosa.<\/p>\n

He stresses that his country has consistently supported the current Revitalized Transitional Government of National Unity and the people of South Sudan as they navigate through the transition period.<\/p>\n

As the Chairperson of the African Union High-Level Ad hoc Committee on South Sudan, also known as the C5, Ramaphosa affirms that South Africa will maintain its support at a bilateral level.<\/p>\n

The C5 committee consists of South Africa, Algeria, Chad, Nigeria and Rwanda.<\/p>\n

He stated that South Sudan is now at a crucial point in its journey towards consolidating democracy.<\/p>\n

Ramaposa says parties to the peace agreement are working to ensure that the necessary preconditions are in place for the holding of elections that are free, fair and credible.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was glad to see the progress that has been made in the run-up to the elections, including the establishment of a national elections commission and the registration of political parties. What is pleasing is that the South Sudanese are working together to address the outstanding issues on the agreed Roadmap as the country advances towards elections,\u201d Ramaposa said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis proves that the adage \u201cAfrican solutions for African problems\u201d is truly at work in South Sudan. The best we can all do is to encourage and support the process,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

President Ramaposa says as Africa\u2019s newest country, South Sudan needs greater support from the international community.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Africa and as the international community, we owe it to a people who have suffered so much and for so long, to support South Sudan\u2019s journey towards becoming a fully-fledged democracy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a collective responsibility to ensure that South Sudan is ultimately able to reap the dividends of peace and security, including economic prosperity.\u201d<\/p>\n

He pointed out that South Africa understands the challenges of national reconstruction and the difficulties of forging national unity in a multi-ethnic society.<\/p>\n

The President says his country has provided development, mediation and other forms of assistance to South Sudan since 2005.<\/p>\n

He says South Sudan needs investment, particularly in social and economic infrastructure.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Ramaposa says many South African companies have demonstrated their confidence in South Sudan\u2019s economy and have a presence there.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that all these countries have invested a great deal of time and effort to ensure there is stability in South Sudan.<\/p>\n

South Africa as guarantors of the Peace Agreement helps South Sudan with capacity building for state institutions and programmes for post-conflict reconstruction.<\/p>\n

President Ramaposa says his country used the African Renaissance and International Cooperation Fund to provide humanitarian assistance to people in South Sudan negatively impacted by the conflict.<\/p>\n
