South Sudan asserts government's stability amidst peace deal challenges: Video

South Sudan's Information Minister, Michael Makuei Lueth, has asserted that the government maintains "full control" of the country's security situation, despite recent events that pose challenges to the 2018 revitalised peace agreement. On March 4, 2025, South Sudanese forces arrested Petroleum Minister Puot Kang Chol and Lieutenant General Gabriel Doup Lam, both allies of First Vice President Riek Machar. Additionally, troops were deployed around Machar's residence. Machar's spokesperson, Pal Mai Deng, condemned these actions as violations of the peace agreement, stating they "erode confidence and trust among the parties."
