A lack of accountability for crimes perpetrated during the ongoing conflict in South Sudan remains one of the country's “biggest challenges,” the Human Rights Director for the United Nations Mission said today as he wrapped up a visit to the northwestern Wau region.
South Sudan should resolve controversy over its government system by implementing a modified semi-presidential form with cabinet and parliament like that of Finland, with a committee-style legislature similar to Switzerland’s. The prerequisite for permanent peace is global democratization. South Sudan should carry out constitutional reform to effect a democratic paradigm shift that adhere to the principles of One World under One Set of Laws, and amend its constitution as needed to stay abreast of changing times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
