decades of war with the rest of sudan. but the excitement was soon replaced by a civil war of its own. fragile p steals, and humanitarian crises. solve it here still leaves the nation a decade on. but he's been locked in a power struggle with the 1st vice president react much, are many say their rivalry has hindered south to dance development, particularly relating to the countries. vast oil reserves. speaking at a ceremony to mark independence here, urged people to embrace peace. on my part, i assure you that i will not read, then you will that would again lead on well together to recover the last decade and put our country back to the path of development. in this new ticket, 400000 people died in the civil war after independence. millions are still

10:36 am
it was audible. things are now relatively calm. i like previous t steals that, failed. some people hope you didn't. he government set up last year. we'll hold it for former rebel, either react, masha sworn in a 1st vice president, along for ever vice president president, solve a kid and michelle, i once again trying to work together and to the elections in 2023 politicians. hope this transitional period encourages refugees and internally displaced people to return to their homes. thousands of people live here and this is just one of many can cross out the door. there's no running water and not enough food, meaning fat. and you said they don't know how long they going to be going home for several of them is not an option because i've been to kick in some parts of the country. after that flood, drought and into communal violence. children born often dependents have never known peace age was to say the mediterranean crisis is listening. these are some of our
10:37 am
greatest concern. certainly there's a food insecurity, crisis and sudan. $1400000.00 children are going to be male nurse this year. the highest number in years, the key parts of the peace agreement are still to be implemented. these include established a unified national army, made of opposition and government forces. the people of south done telling the leadership that look, we tired of war. nobody once will any more, if there are some feel political leaders who are saying that they would go and mobilize some of our citizens so that they cause a fight because they want to be leaders of this country. i don't think they will get the audience from the property. the new coalition government is trying to rebuild, focusing on various developmental and infrastructure projects. as new buildings go up in some parts of the country, uniting a bitterly divided nation building trust and making sure it's safe enough for everyone affected by conflict to return home is going to be much more difficult.
10:38 am
how to talk to you but the. all right, let's bring our guests in, juba, jeffrey duque, security analyst, and director of the south sudan action network on small arms. a network against armed violence in nairobi near go up to the poor, south sudan researcher for human rights watch. and also in juba james o' cook, conflict management, specialist and senior research fellow at the center for strategic and policy studies. a warm welcome to you all the go. let me start with you today. there was so much excitement in south sudan when it became an independent state. how did things so quickly go from that initial mood of fauria to there being a civil war breaking out? you know, just a couple of years later, we have to understand that. don gord handed a good deal and also an independent you had and you wouldn't be does of various groups you should be just and previously but it could be there's
10:39 am
also been stumps and i got point the person that was hearing the she had also possibly dr. jones, so from the beginning you had a very shaky political foundation for the country. you also have to understand that the 2010 election that preceded independence had also led to such and such an you know, one i intellectual approach to weapons against and also the 2005 piece deal. by the way, for research, as well as dependence, also do not address 2nd, including the question around reconciliation. how do you reconcile only ethnic groups, but also the political leaders who are going to unite into it also do not address the issue around accountability. how do you address the legacy of the war of
10:40 am
success? it's denise governments, as well as violence and abuses, had been completed by various south. and i'm again, so given that and that you had an international community with ego that was eager to put together government and the state without addressing you know, this very issue or on accountability, the building of institutions, concrete institutions that can be able to vote on the box so this is some of the issues that like you know that maybe easy done a lot in december 2000. jeffery, from your point of view, were expectations, especially on the part of the international community where they just to high at the get go. and were there signs that were obvious early on that these deep seated issues just weren't being properly addressed?
10:41 am
i would like to talk more about the expectation of south to denise estate about of international community. and i do not say less petitions of the news has been unrealistic in the country has a lot of potential. ready in terms of the resources both. busy mineral oil and, you know, human resources to build a viable state. did a very, very huge gap. and i can tell, you know, that's actually nice disappointed that frustrated and down hoops held hostage. james, what are some of the biggest challenges that south sudan faces today? we have 3 major challenges, one on one of these media sheets, jarling. and these are being missing from the very time of the ation of dependence
10:42 am
. the political leaders in the country of the much into, into our struggle. and they believe in military power, more than a 1000000 in the country to obtain violence, and these violent 60 development progress in the country. so that's the 1st job in the 2nd charlene is institution. those need us to give that money. the public affairs in the country and because of these weak in those leaders are always run the machinery of the government on personal basis and on connection with whoever they would like to be in use
10:43 am
in the country or the 3rd. the 3rd problem. but we have is the, is the human capacity so, so, so then, so today is less than $1.00 to $5.00. but then how to utilize them and to put them into the right position in the public. or if it does been a big problem and you can try for them and, and even isn't this connection as been the train of about pointing, i think, into the cause of the problem i'm having wrong in the right office. so these 3 at the timing is up to $15000.00. i'm they have to the level of violence, but we have not because the subject is not restricted by those on the braces.
10:44 am
speaking events, more of the thing you go, i want to talk for a moment about the scale of human suffering and south sudan caused by the humanitarian crises there. of course they have the world food program that has said that south sudan phases its worst hunger crisis. it's most extreme levels of food insecurity since independence that around 60 percent of the population are enduring, severe shortages. then you have unicef. they have warned that a record 4500000 children, south sudan, that's 2 out of 3 children in the country are in desperate need of humanitarian support. what needs to happen in order to start getting much needed aid to people who are suffering so much? you know, 1st of all, all the figures that you pointed to why depressing could like both james and jeffery have said this country started with so much promise only to fall by the way side. and so what has one of the 100 crises and likely funding the country
10:45 am
is facing now? is mostly a result of this man. privacy is the results of conflict year. the last thing is to see that home because of violence or the strike violence and is also the result of over the last 2 years. an escalation of what we have seen, a localized violence into violence that is on the beach from the military axes, in shortly makes possible north of bargain and also works. and so population is in this part of the country assay, acute mother tricia and acute hunger. and so it does also the primary prices that has been an all be from country to different franchises. but you know, the government has, over the last couple years, been unable to invest in infrastructure. you know,
10:46 am
when you go across the country, even a di, you'll see that there's very limited public networks. the education sector is plagued by lack of a passage and adequate access to education for several children around the country . much of much of service provision, much of you know, would security and other critical issues like health care is left in the hands of humanitarian agencies. and so sorry, that needs to break away from the cycle aid and humanitarian dependency. and that can be done by funneling all the oil wealth and resources that the country has into . and during this basic services are made available to ordinary citizens. but also, even before, while that is being worked on, the government has to ensure an end to obstruction of humanitarian aid and an end
10:47 am
to talk what chris and taking action when individuals that attack a operations. so no, so 500 over 120120 workers killed since the construct started in 2000 to 2 and most of the people are out for denise to denise who are sacrificing deadline to go to the front lines to actually prove to actually be able to support and help their fellow students. so a lot needs to happen, but it's about silencing the guns, the government, ensuring that's what it comes to and that will be all position national front and the government and the top against us to be in the, in the south part of the country. but also in shown to wire up and other cases, the government needs to take concrete action on military actors. what actually
10:48 am
wellings, the local violence experience jeffrey in the go there was talking at one point about the need to try to funnel oil wealth, you know, to the people to make sure that the mediterranean crises are dealt with. of course, we know this house or dan relies on crude sales for revenue that it's currently experiencing a rapid decline in oil output for a country that is so rich in oil. why are the people have sounds good and still not really seeing the benefit of that? well, i think that is mainly because of the much between the resources and needs of the citizens. the government can see, can hear the biographies of citizens. obviously all out that. but they have chosen not to, you know, allocate the need of resources to the needs of citizens. for example,
10:49 am
i will say that the help that they left for the engineers to do, do you know, to find them. and that is similar to the education sector and you see enormous budget allocation to the security effect. yet you cannot see that huge location transmitted into the security of the, you know, the house of the developer. money doesn't make sense in the fashion of expenditure, but also related to the exploration of resources as may be done in the shadows. like there's no clear transparency to truck. how much as tough to that is actually ernie in from the fellow it's resources and where this money is going and it didn't use about corruption if not new. now, there's a culture of unity. the result is, you know,
10:50 am
coming in from oil and the minerals are going into the dark perry pockets of individuals. yet there is nothing, nothing being done, you know, to stop. that's the flow of the national resources into individual pockets. we have the anti corruption commission, which illustrates the existence of if you know the by to talk corruption, that is not function. he said that the anti put up some commission for leslie was created to exist rather than to function. so unless the government changes its attitude to let the government officials new public resources and get away with it. we'll see, you know, with with saucers, continue to go to the point where the people are faster. bankruptcy net. james,
10:51 am
there are observers and analysts who say that foreign donors need to revise their approach to aid and that they need to start holding south student these leaders accountable. how likely is that to happen? you know, it can often need don't courage from. they don't know. and so these donors have been supporting the government, but does not care for delivery for a long time, right? from the independence united in 2011. there are a lot of unity in the public institution, but the management of i nonsense and they don't as i'm not thinking attention on, but they kept putting money to house to done.
10:52 am
and also they kept sending their own money just to come on and, and take care of those going was fun and a no much attention been paid to a government institution including the but it said, how do they design that? but it's line on the basis of a, with the but if the but your lines are out of design and even the but you know, be approved by the parliament. is it followed or it is not for an almighty is not look to the service and all might, is it development and i think level then michael, are you ready sort of development all these pushing i've not been and then don't know where he's the bringing money but not, not paying attention to really,
10:53 am
whether these money are by the you to enhancing the capacity of them. they can always say one to one phone. it's on this to me like there is of the nation, but i think in building defend a long time ago. so there has been, does not go far, no go, but tension from whatever they brings. and they think about if he's a young country and there's no much say about it, let's, let's compromise those leaders and feel, you know, they learn better. but 10 years on the line, those leaders, i've never done anything yet. i know, listen, they are learning, they keep it, you know, they seem to go monday the resources they know somebody will come and pick a mission. why is this one's going to be picked up by the,
10:54 am
by the go next? why am they there are no waiting for the source use is an acceptable as far i were supposed to give you a government assisting or maybe to make sure that the service i believe, but that is not happening. it is, they don't as human it that in that are not part of the world. for example, the ministry of what we call the end one is moving the all the medicine brought to the government does not have any had any if you all don't as well. they don't know. i think to get that taken care of. and it's not, i'm but not mental. and they let me all those donors. i think that is, i think the dorm is not sick them or the employees. they have abundant teachers. they are not paying the salary, they are not paying them for them to run the school,
10:55 am
but they don't. those are the most taking care of. busy the school and the government funded that is for community for james, i'm sorry, i'm sorry to interrupt you, but we're starting to run out of time. now go, can i ask you to talk a little bit about the kind of toll that the trauma caused by the civil war has taken on civilians in south sudan. the civil war was extremely brutal. it took a horrific toll. i was marked by, you know, rapes killings, child soldier recruitment. what kind of tool has it taken on everybody and also where things stand when it comes to the establishment of accountability mechanisms like perhaps a war crimes court. right. i mean, i think, you know, when we talk about the civil war in the past, and you may have been ended by the 2018 p still, but it's a group of cautions and its consequences. i still thought even to the and so all
10:56 am
sides government and i like mission your, all of your issues. all of them cannot claim you know, sense of what has happened to all sides killed to be committed a great i ducted to billions and also recruit children and youth children. i'm so reckoning from the can of the abuses have been committed is something better than what and so that we don't have to have another conversation about war reaching out because it would cost if we're not addressed. and so now the government has to ensure accountability for all this bras violations in boston. the piece that they have signed caused them them to establish a war crime in partnership with africa as a hybrid. now in january, the government agreed to establish the war crimes and the commission and truth reconciliation as well as the recreation board. and now they,
10:57 am
yes to follow through, along with the african, you know, to make this part of the honesty, this caught, you know, chapter 5 piece deal is one of those chapters that collect the wheels of the subsidy. nice people. when you look at the entirety of the segment of the field is quite important. but even beyond that, the government needs to ensure reliable incredible institution with justice. the justice factor in one of the sectors has been under invested in under prioritized insults. and so, along with creating this ensure in this war, crime becomes a reality that has to be in the judiciary to ensure its independence to ensure enough budget to allow it to build its own capacity. all right, we have run out of time, so we're going to have to leave the conversation there. thank you so much. all of our guests, jeffrey duque. yeah, go to poor and james cook and thank you to for watching. you can see this and all

10:59 am
who is incredibly recipe for women to get 50 percent representation in the same spiritual assembly here. and getting this pick up to collect the segregate, to say the reason this is extremely important. service that they provide the city we need to take america to try to bring people together trying to deal with people who've been left behind the coveted beyond. well, the taken him without hesitation and died for they find out a lot of new babies. what i did not think it's neglected babies to death, people and power investigate, exposes, and questions they use them to be of our around the globe on al jazeera.
11:00 am
we understand the differences in the cultures, the cost around what moves with the news and current. does that matter to you? i appeals to the u. s. u. s. send troops to secure the country after the president's assassination. but washington says that a lot provide military health. ah robin, you're working on. they were like, well, headquarters here in the hall coming up in the next 30 minutes. the even boats to extend the delivery of humanitarian aid from turkey to syria providing much needed assistance to millions of people.
