The United States has found that South Sudan's leadership is failing to implement parts of a peace deal signed in 2018 and warned it will continue to impose costs on those perpetuating the conflict, according to a report seen by Reuters.
The U.S. State Department - in a report to Congress that has not been made public - said the unity government was slow to implement essential commitments made under the 2018 deal and failed to meet key milestones in a timely manner.
Though the 2018 peace deal in South Sudan halted the worst violence of that war, analysts say there are several unresolved issues, such as stalled reunification of the national army, that could plunge the country back into widespread conflict. It warned that governance failures have become a key driver of national and subnational violence and called for sustained reform, transparency and accountability.The report also warned that Washington would continue to impose costs on those who perpetuate the conflict. The United States has previously imposed sanctions on individuals and entities over the conflict in the country.
