Riek Machar, Former Vice President of South Sudan

Stephen Sackur speaks to Riek Machar, former South Sudanese Vice President turned rebel leader.

The world's newest nation is again racked by internal conflict. More than a million people have been forced from their homes and the country's president Salva Kiir, and his nemesis Riek Machar are again at each other’s throats. Has South Sudan been betrayed by its leaders?
