The issue of debt, actually, is a very critical one. Sudan right now is sitting at $36 billion U.S. Most of the debt was actually taken by the national government in Khartoum, and they want to divide this debt with the south.
The people of southern Sudan believe this money was taken to buy very sophisticated weapons to kill the people of southern Sudan. People wonder, “How can I pay for the things that were actually used to kill my people?” So it is not acceptable.
But for the sake of peace, people will find grounds to negotiate and see how they can settle the whole thing. Anything can be done if people have a political will to negotiate the issue of debt. We'll have to see what kind of projects were actually implemented in Sudan using this money.
