In a step towards enhancing the effectiveness of ceasefire monitoring in South Sudan, representatives from the Ceasefire and Transitional Security Arrangements Monitoring and Verification Mechanism (CTSAMVM) visited the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) Force Commander Lt. Gen. Mohan Subramanian on 20 May 2024. The visit aimed to discuss collaborative efforts and strategic enhancements to ensure robust compliance with peace agreements in South Sudan and the region.
Both CTSAMVM and UNMISS play crucial roles in maintaining peace and stability in South Sudan. CTSAMVM, established to monitor and verify compliance with the permanent ceasefire and transitional security arrangements, provides critical on-ground insights. Meanwhile, UNMISS supports the peace process, protects civilians, and promotes human rights. The convergence of their missions sets the stage for a powerful partnership.
The visit underscored a unified vision for peace in South Sudan, with both CTSAMVM and UNMISS committed to working closely to ensure the successful implementation of ceasefire agreements. The discussions paved the way for a more integrated approach, leveraging each organization’s strengths to achieve a common goal.
