United Nations Security Council Resolution on South Sudan is Horrible

By John Jal Wuor, Kampala-Uganda  

September 16, 2016 (SSB) —- Unanimously adopting resolution 2304 (2016), the Council authorized UNMISS to use all necessary means to carry out its tasks in Juba, South Sudan on 12th August, 2016. The UN Security Council Resolution does not yield any meaning to citizens of South Sudan who have suffered from the crisis since the commencement of adoption of the resolution by world body.

The deployment of 4,000 UN troops into Juba is now delayed because of low action by United Nations Security Council in New York and the Peace Agreement will not be implement by both sides. The UNSC should put a pressure on President Salva Kiir’s cronies in order to accept peace in Juba.

Governments need to develop international relations in different fields like security, and trade as well as to decide the option of engaging in a bilateral or multilateral basis with other countries through diplomacy. Bilateralism and multilateralism have supporters and detractors; however the multilateral approach has increased since the end of the Second World War and thanks to the globalisation that affects all the countries around the world.

In this way, the international intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) have become important actors in global governance, cooperating in problem-solving agreements and providing activities to face global problems. IGOs can also be independent actors. Bilateralism is considered the reflection of the distribution of powers between the parties, where the dominant country generally takes advantage, while…
