South Sudan urges UN to lift sanctions at UNGA
Original: South Sudan calls for sanctions to be lifted at UNGA
South Sudan has called for international sanctions against the country to be lifted, making the appeal during the United Nations General Assembly. The government argues the remaining measures are hindering economic recovery and the country's progress after years of conflict. The request puts pressure on the UN Security Council and member states to reconsider restrictions that have been in place amid concerns over peace implementation.
Why now: South Sudan raised the issue on the world stage at the UN General Assembly, prompting debate over whether sanctions should now be removed.
