    "content": "the court ruling in Nairobi. First of all, our regional issues are actually peculiar. The reason why these issues are peculiar is because the Rome Statute states very clearly that it is critical when we are trying to interpret this statute to make sure that we understand that sometimes when the stability or the peace and security of a region is at stake, then there may be a necessity for certain issues to be dealt with differently. This is why it is critical that when we look at the issue of Sudan, we look at the issue of regional stability. Sudan is a country that is a critical player and a stakeholder within the Horn of Africa. The Kenya Government has deliberately made sure that we have engaged Sudan on matters which have been critical. Pertaining to South Sudan, we know that there are outstanding issues which need to be sorted out in terms of agreeing on the border disparities and the issue of Abbey. Also, South Sudan, even after it has become an independent State, we must act as an independent broker by making sure that we talk to both sides. We want to avail the necessary information, so that we are able to be seen by these two countries with this very fragile negotiated settlement, as an arbiter who provides the necessary position which will make both sides to agree peacefully."
