This topic discussed in her talks with the leadership of South Sudan remains relevant today. I will say even more so after the decision to once again extend the transitional period,\u201d Sedat said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe German Foreign Minister highlighted the urgency to fully and swiftly implement the peace agreement and to do it in a way of constructive dialogue amongst all partners with the objective of finding consensus where consensus is lacking,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The German diplomat said it was important to reflect on the bilateral relations between Juba and Berlin, as Germany celebrated the unity day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are here to celebrate the National Day in Juba. It is a good opportunity to look at the relations between South Sudan and Germany. Germany is a long-standing partner and friend to the people of South Sudan,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Sedat said, German would continue to push for the implementation of the peace agreement as South Sudanese struggled with the political, humanitarian and economic challenges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile the prime responsibility to address the humanitarian and social needs is on the government of South Sudan, we are here to support and to complement these efforts, and it is in that context that we play our part in contributing to address the humanitarian needs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Guests celebrate German Unity Day in Juba on Thursday, Oct. 3, 2024<\/p>\n<p>Ambassador Sedat also pledged to support the leadership of South Sudan in addressing the humanitarian crisis, especially for those affected by floods.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVery concretely at the moment, providing additional funding in view of the impacts of the flooding situation, and in view of the challenge of the re-emergence of the Mpox virus in neighboring countries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Monday Semaya acknowledged the bilateral ties, saying they date back before the independence of South Sudan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn fact, the German technical cooperation in South Sudan started two years before our independence and a lot has been done. I have a privilege, on behalf of the government, to thank them for this great support to the people and the government of South Sudan,\u201d Semaya said.<\/p>\n<p>The Deputy Minister said the German support included the programs in agriculture health and technical training.<\/p>\n<p>German Ambassador Sedat (L) and South Sudan\u2019s Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Monday Semaya (R)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGermany has done a lot to the people and to the government of South Sudan. In addition, it is still doing a remarkable work, giving tremendous support to its developmental cooperation problem, especially in the fields of rural water, development, agriculture, health and technical training. We in the Republic of South Sudan appreciate the support,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>While reiterating South Sudan\u2019s commitment to working with Germany, Semaya appealed for more cooperation, especially in education, technology and cultural exchange.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to reassure the German government and people of our unwavering commitment to continue working closely with the Germany for the benefit of our people and countries,\u201d Semaya concluded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
