PRESS RELEASE : TALKS BETWEEN REPUBLIC OF SUDAN AND REPUBLIC OF SOUTH SUDAN
PRESS RELEASE
TALKS BETWEEN REPUBLIC OF SUDAN AND REPUBLIC OF SOUTH SUDAN
Malaysia commends the efforts by the African Union High-Level Implementation Panel (AUHIP) in mediating talks between Republic of Sudan and Republic of South Sudan on all outstanding Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) and post-secession issues.
We are convinced that diplomacy is the way forward in overcoming the differences and reaching for a mutually acceptable resolution that would benefit all parties for continued peace and development in the region. It is therefore very pertinent for both sides to refrain from making unilateral decisions.
Malaysia also reaffirms its long term commitment in the development of petroleum industry in both countries through its national oil company PETRONAS, who has been present in Republic of Sudan since 1995.
