South Sudanese arch-foes on Wednesday signed a “preliminary” power-sharing deal, with a Sudanese minister saying it reinstates rebel leader Riek Machar as first vice president in a bid to end the civil war.
“Salva Kiir will continue as president of South Sudan and Riek Machar will be the first vice president,” Sudanese Foreign Minister Al-Dierdiry Ahmed said at a ceremony held in Khartoum to sign the accord.
“There will be four other vice presidents shared between other political groups,” said Ahmed, announcing the details of a much-delayed power-sharing pact between South Sudan’s warring groups.
