LEAKED: Security Council wants South Sudan governed by the UN for 10 years
(Verification Required)
ADDIS ABABA – A well clasified leaked report from the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) on South Sudan crisis detailed a 10 year master plan to put South Sudan on the trusteeship of the UN to provide governance, civilians protection as well as preparing elections and providing general security to would-be president until South Sudanese are ready enough to take care of their own destiny.
The document titled Road Map to Stability in South Sudan blamed what it believed as South Sudan leaders’ lack of foresight and leadership for plunging the country into inreversible chaos. The document claimed that both Salva Kiir and Dr Riek Machar have no interest in bringing peace by working out their differences. The document claimed that both men wants to settle their differences through military means while using IGAD brokered peace talks to prepare their troops for dry season offensives.
“As we wait for the two warring parties to settle their grudges militarily, vulnerable South Sudanese are dying everyday from man made diseases and famine. We cannot wait any longer because there’s a greater danger lying a head. doing so will aggravate the situation and a catastrophe of a higher magnitude will happen……We are fully behind the IGAD talks and the leadership shown by the block is extraordinary. But the talk is not moving that much despite their efforts. It appeared also that both warring parties are using the talks to buy time and acquire more lethal ammunitions. This is where UNSC must step in to make South Sudan peaceful again and prevent it from failing,” The statement reads.
UNSC wants a way out of the two principals namely Dr Riek Machar and Salva Kiir Mayardiit inorder to bring about a lasting peace in the country. They see the two as the blockage to any negotiation going on in Addis Ababa.
According to the document, a period of 10 years is enough to handover the security of the state to a civilian leader thereafter. Within the mentioned time frame, an election will be held only when reconciliation is succesfully done between communities affected by war and internally displaced people as well as refugees are settled in their respective states. The natinal army will also need to be restructured in supervision of UNMISS. UNMISS forces will also be redoubled to run the affairs and security of South Sudan.
The document bears signatures of Troika ambassadors to the UN as well as other security council members except China.
This latest development adds to the general frustration shown by the international community in regards to the unsuccesful, on and off peace talks between the two warring factions Ethiopia.
IGAD last week threatened to use force against any warring party if found to have contributed continuing hostilities. They also detailed a wide ranges of sanctions which include assests freezes, travel bans and arm embargo.
