AU summit positive on CPA implementation says Amum
The Secretary General of the SPLM and Government of Southern Sudan (GoSS) minister of Peace and CPA implementation, Pagan Amum, said that the African leaders have endorsed the southern Sudan's call to support the final part of the implementation of the CPA.
Amum, who returned from the African Union (AU) summit with other two GoSS ministers on Tuesday, said that they received a positive response from the rest of the African leadership.
He said the AU expects the referendum to be conducted on time and the organization also accepted to observe the conduct of the referendum.
In a related development, Amum said the IGAD has agreed t o provide technical support to allow the completion of the north - south border demarcation.
He added that if the border demarcation is not finished on time it will not affect the timely conduct of the southern Sudan referendum and this could be done in the six months after the referendum.
