About this episode
On 22 February, South Sudan's two warring leaders, Salva Kiir and Riek Machar agreed once again to form a unity government. After several failed attempts to make peace, this deal is more important than ever. In this episode, we flip the script by bringing Crisis Group's Africa Program Director, Comfort Ero, into the studio to interview host Alan Boswell. Alan, who is Crisis Group's senior analyst in South Sudan, has just returned from field research there. In this episode Comfort and Alan discuss how we got to this point, what the unity government needs to succeed and what may hold it back, again.
