December 28, 2016 (JUBA)- South Sudan presidential spokesperson has
commended countries whose representatives at the United Nations Security
Council failed to approve a vote seeking to impose arms embargo and
targeted sanction on the young nation.

Ateny Wek Ateny, who speak for President Kiir described the proposed
resolution to impose an arms embargo as “double standards”. He denied
reports of atrocities being committed by the government.

He was reacting to last week’s vote at the Council where 15 of its members
failed to reach consensus on whether they should impose arms embargo and
targeted sanctions.

Seven votes went in favour of the proposal while eight other countries
including Russia, China and Japan abstained. Nine votes and no veto are
required for a resolution to be adopted by the Security Council.

If it were approved, the country would have been denied an opportunity to
buy and acquire weapons advocates and critics say are used to kill her own
citizens pushing for reforms and democratic process.

The approved proposal would also have restricted travels of key figures in
the government and armed opposition, including its leader, Riek Machar.

The chief of general staff of the South Sudanese army (SPLA), Paul Malong
Awan, an ally of president and an architect of the conflict with
information minister, Michael Makuei Lueth are among the officials who
would be placed on a global watch list.

   This is USA Molding this useless idea. If it is a matter of preventing
   genocide, then we will resort into Panga, machettes and other weapons in
   destroying these gangs tribes of Kakwa, Kuku, Madi, Pajulu etc who attack
   innocent passengers on the roads. Fuck them all.

      De-so called Sir king or Miss Queen,
      the Dinkas are nothing to the whole Equatoria in general, forget
      about mentioning few forgetting tribes of Equatoria or because you know
      that side eastern are men and they behave rudely like you Dinkas. By the
      way by the time this leadership has been taken away from you
Dinkas, forget
      about leadership in the republic of South Sudan you either go back home.

   I applaud the move by those UNSC member states who abstained from voting
   in favour of arms embargo and targeted sanctions against South Sudan.That’s
   how a serious and benign friendship can be realised.In fact,there’s no any
   imminent genocide as UNSC and Job Seekers put it.Our country is stable with
   citizenry enjoying normal activities.Our country won’t plunge in such a
   mess until infinite time.

   Hahaha! I am so sorry to be with tribal fighters on this page.Alas!
   There’s no logic to use tribes as tool of attaining your interest guys? I
   have been a member here for so long and no time I have ever written on my
   tribal basis nor have I commented.You’re all citizens of this country
   experiencing such predicaments.You better devise successful mechanism to
   bring situation under control not roaring

      @Against Incitement

      You’re right dear.Editorial team of Sudan Tribune should otherwise be
      keen on their rules of membership as such incitement to violence
whether it
      could be racial,ethnic or personal is one of the rules and has become a
      game to play by some members here. I wish the team takes disciplinary
      measures against perpetrators and I will ensure it reaches its peak.

   TO: All South Sudanese with Grievances,Please accept dialogue as the
   only mean to solve all differences at all levels.Joint the upcoming
   National Dialogue and express your grievances in that forum.If you always
   seek solutions to your problems through others,you will end being exploited
   by greedy ones and tie their interest into yours and complicate your
   problems.... see around for examples.
