Blog Report: WILL SUDAN OIL DEAL EASE HUMANITARIAN EMERGENCY? By Ambassador Mo
Urged on by the African Union, South Sudan & Sudan have apparently resolved at least part of their dispute over transfer of petroleum. South Sudan had accused Sudan of “stealing” it’s oil which was being transported via pipeline to north to Port Sudan & export. While petroleum may have helped both Sudan & South Sudan move forward from poverty toward development, it has manifested itself more as oil on a long simmering fire.

Blog Report: SOUTH SUDAN “INVADES”? By Ambassador Mo
UN Security Council expected to adopt a “Presidential Statement” on ongoing conflict/tensions within & between Sudan & South Sudan. Both the African Union & UN SC are looking at South Sudan more as “aggressor” particularly with respect to Heglig Region apparently now controlled by its forces.
