Majak D’Agoôt - Former Deputy Defence Minister, South Sudan

HARDtalk’s Shaun Ley speaks to Majak D’Agoôt, former deputy Defence Minister of South Sudan. It took half a century of civil war to give South Sudan its independence.

Have South Sudan's politicians failed their starving, displaced people or was the South never viable as a separate country in the first place?
