5:18 pm
remember that relationship between stan and south sudan have not been smooth since the two countries in the us in south sudan get independence in july twenty seventh they've been occasions of south sudan arming sudan's rebels as well as sudan arming south sudan's rebels and that has created a lot of tension there was also border tension between the two countries more than sixty percent of the border between sudan and south sudan are yet to be demarc ated and there's also the issue of oil south sudan need sudan's pipelines to transport its oil to international markets but south sudan and sudan had a disagreement over how much to pay and went to pay them back into nato which has forced south sudan to halt its production damaging its economy so the two men and the representatives from the two countries sat down and agreed on resumption of oil production in south sudan's unity state or former unity state oil production has been cut down by more than have because of south sudan civil war and they've also agreed to stop arming each other each other's rebels although both of in the past said they do not do so they've come out strongly from after these meetings saying
5:19 pm
that if there are rebels in each other's soil they would be there just as civilians and they would not be allowed to carry out any armed or political activities this means that if there are rebels if there are south sudanese rebels in sudan or sudanese rebels in south sudan they may have to go back to their countries that they're whose governments they're fighting it also means that they would be short and ammunition so they would be vulnerable to the government that they're fighting and and it may sustain a loss to them so these agreements that have been signed by sudan and south sudan by the two presidents and the ministers from both countries means an economic stability to the countries but more importantly a political stability ok i haven morgan live for us in khartoum thank you very much . well it british police have requested the extradition of the manchester area bombers brother from libya officials want to arrest in relation to the murder of the twenty two victims killed in that concert attack someone to be detonated a suicide bomb during an ariana grande a concert and may both brothers had traveled to libya in april with some on
