Mission to Ethiopia and South Sudan (23-25 April 2015) - Main contents
"I have witnessed first-hand the suffering of the people of South Sudan. People who have been forced to leave their homes. People who lack the opportunity to earn a living. They have suffered enough! Humanitarian aid saves lives but it cannot solve the crisis. A sustainable peace agreement is urgently needed. I appeal to the fighting groups in South Sudan for peace and reconciliation. South Sudanese leaders need to put an end to the unnecessary suffering of their people who deserve much better"
