Khartoum – The Sudanese Government has described South Sudan’s decision to include the disputed areas on the agenda of negotiations as an attempt on the part of Juba to obstruct efforts to resume talks between the two countries.
The decision by the Government of South Sudan reflects ill-intention in the UN Security Council resolution which set the stage for such allegations, Sudanese Presidential Adviser, Ghazi Salaheldin, has said, adding that the UN Security Council resolution did not give priority to the disputed areas.
The stance of the Government of South Sudan would derail the upcoming round of talks between the two countries because South Sudan had opted for war so it could attempt to block efforts to resume negotiations, Salaheldin said.
Meanwhile, Chair of the Ad hoc Border Demarcation Committee, Prof. Abdallah Al-Sadiq, characterized Juba’s decision to include Heglig and Abyei on the agenda of talks as unfounded and is supported by no evidence; saying it was agreed that the issue would be addressed based on 1.1.1956.
He said the signatures of the Government of South Sudan on the documents of the committee indicate that an agreement is reached on the borderline and that the disputed areas only include Joda and Migainis (White Nile), Kaka (South Kordofan), Kafia Kangi and Kafen Debbi (South Darfur).
Prof. Al-Sadiq accused international quarters of seeking to prolong conflict between the two countries, saying the committee submitted documents to the Presidency, Government of South Sudan and AUHIP and that these documents were duly signed by the parties concerning the disputed areas between the two countries, adding Juba could not claim ownership of Heglig or Abyei.
Adviser at the Ministry of Information, Dr. Rabie Abdelatti, said the allegations of the Government of South Sudan were based on the UNSC resolution (2024); adding Juba is being manipulated to implement agenda of the west to destabilize Sudan.
