South Sudan’s government has agreed to pay $262 million it owes for the transfer of oil through Sudan, according to South Sudan media reports. Most of South Sudan’s oil revenues come from oil earnings. The civil war and falling global oil price have threatened to cripple the country, bringing civil service salaries and security to a standstill for seven months.
