we're in south sudan's capital juba. >> to really understand the root of this problem, it's importantto go back to august of last year when the president signed this peace agreement. did he so under extreme international pressure, and he made it clear that was the reason why he was signing it, not because he supported the content. two months after he signed it, h. the question that everybody is asking, did either side have any intention of making peace or was it simply outside pressure that caused them to do so, and therefore can this one possibly hold? now the head of the negotiating team, who has been overseeing these negotiations, the former president of bats wanna said that reunion that the resolution of 28 states would be very, very disruptive to the process. he knew that it would undermine the progress that they had made. however, did he say that it ought to be implemented any way because they aske ask acted in the spirit of the agreement. it does seem like the peace process has been put on hold for the time being, and it may even be necessary to go back to the negotiating table

on the other hand, they did not yet in their forces which are supposed to be hur in juba. they have not sent the presidential guards so that they are here. >> reporter: as you mentioned the impact on the civilian population has been horrific. it seems like the leaders on both sides have been more concerned about jockeying for their position and trying to establish who has the greater influence and power than on their own people. this was thrown off track in october when the president said he was defying his states into 28 despite signing the agreement on the base of ten states. this is a series impediment to the process. that delegation is supposed to be returning today or tomorrow, to form a transitional government but on the basis of ten states and not 28. if that were to happen, it would require a serious amount of backpedalling on behalf of the government. it's difficult at this moment to see which party might be prepared to compromise in the interests of the people of south sudan >>> thank you very much. the south korean president park geun-hye has called for a meetin
