CCTV9英语新闻：南苏丹政府军准备围攻叛军
时间：2018-12-09 作者：英语课 分类：CCTV9英语新闻2013年12月
A senior official in South Sudan says government troops will attack the main stronghold of rebel forces loyal to former vice 1 president Riek Machar if the offer of a ceasefire is rejected.
Information Minister Michael Makuei says government troops are ready to advance to Bentiu, the last state-capital held by Machar’s forces. He says the ceasefire offer, remains 2 on the table and that the government has done all it can to bring the two-week conflict, in which more than 1,000 people have been killed, to an end.
On Friday, the government said it would release 8 of 11 senior politicians arrested over an alleged 3 coup 4 plot against President Salva Kiir. But Kiir’s former deputy, Machar, has reacted indifferently to the truce 5 offer, saying any ceasefire needed to be credible 6 and properly enforced for him to take it seriously.
South Sudan’s Vice President James Wani Igga insists the government’s offer is genuine: "Dr. Riek has put obstacles to this genuine call by issuing preconditions that the ceasefire cannot be reached unless a negotiation 7 is conducted and he has put a number of obstacles."
