Vietnam welcomes positive developments in South Sudan

Ambassador Hai Anh said security in South Sudan has become stable and a ceasefire is basically observed. Anh highly evaluated the role of the UN and regional organizations including the African Union, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, and neighboring countries, in promoting the peace process in South Sudan. He called on the international community and the UN Panel of Experts (PoE) to take note on efforts made by the transitional government as South Sudan is grappling with the adverse impacts of COVID-19, widespread flooding, and food insecurity. More dialogues and cooperation between the PoE and South Sudan as well as regional countries are needed, he underlined.
