Over this period, we have established a close dialogue, based on common approach towards a number of topical matters, in addressing the key challenges of eradication of all sort of colonization and economical dependency agenda in our continent. We highly value South Sudan’s solidarity and contribution to support and defend the right of the Saharawi people for independence and freedom, consistently stronger bilateral relations between the people of South Sudan and the people of the Sahrawi Arab democratic Republic in the area of diplomatic channels is a stronger push to the African Union to take its natural role as an important International player,” added the President of the Republic in his message to President of the Republic of South Sudan, Salva Kiir Mayardit.
