OFAC Sanctions Two South Sudanese Officials

The Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control sanctioned two South Sudan officials for obstructing peace talks, Treasury said in a Dec. 16 press release. OFAC targeted the Minister of Cabinet Affairs Martin Elia Lomuro and Minister of Defense and Veteran Affairs Kuol Manyang Juuk, who have both “perpetuated” the country’s “conflict for their own personal enrichment,” the press release said.
