take orders and directives to implement their agenda.

The presidential advisor on decentralisation and intergovernmental
linkages, Tor Deng Mawien said government faces lots of difficulties
because western nations were allegedly working hard to ensure they
"execute regime change agenda at all cost".
“They (unnamed western countries) are determined to ensure they
achieve their regime change agenda. They have tried the use of
violence as a way to change the government but this did not work. So
they decided to adopt another strategy this time to achieve their
objective”, Mawien exclusively told Sudan Tribune on Saturday.
“You know there have been threats of targeted and general sanctions
which are being unilaterally advocated to be imposed against the
country and its leadership. This is still part of the regime agenda",
he added.
The senior presidential adviser described regime change agenda as
being a foreign approach to removing a government which does not want
to be controlled by external forces by using external force or
underhand maneuvering within the targeted country.
The Finance Minister, David Athorbei also blamed the country’s
financial woes on what he termed as plans by foreign nations wanting
to see the fall of the current government.
“If we run out of dollars then we will have to depend on the South
Sudanese pound,” said Athorbei.
"There is no way to close fiscal deficit. There are two days to do it,
either we take loans from domestic or international financial
institutions, which we are not getting or depend on our local
currency", he added.

Only naive idiots [susceptible to deflective government
propaganda] would believe this nonsense. If the West had an actual
designs on removing the mindlesss animals in Juba, it would just weeks
to achieve that objective. So these idiots steal billions, fail to
initiate any infrastructural developments, start a terrible war on a
false prospectus... but the West is to blame!?

..The same West that accorded South Sudan preferential
trade arrangements — arrangements that Juba failed to exploit to any
degree. Only losers blame everybody else but themselves for their
failures. How these people [animals really] can consider themselves
leaders of a State, is beyond me.
