 Trump Says He's Serious About 3rd Term Presidency  On Sunday, President Trump stated that he is "not joking" about the possibility of running for a third term, which he has mentioned for the second time in less than three weeks. During a phone conversation with NBC News's Kristen Welker, who noted that he often jokes about the topic, Trump insisted, "No, no, I’m not joking." He also claimed to have "the highest poll numbers of any Republican in the last 100 years," asserting that many polls show him in the high 70s and that he is very popular, with many people wanting him to pursue a third term. However, he added that it is still early in the administration. Trump had previously raised the idea of a third term during a St. Patrick’s Day event on March 12, which included House Speaker Mike Johnson and Ireland's Taoiseach, Micheál Martin, among others. He is constitutionally limited to two terms. When asked how he could return to the White House...

 South Sudan's VP Machar says Uganda is violating arms embargo


South Sudan's First Vice President Riek Machar has accused Uganda of violating a United Nations arms embargo by entering the country with armoured and air force units, and conducting airstrikes there, Reuters reported.


In a letter addressed to the U.N., African Union and the IGAD regional bloc, Machar said Uganda's military intervention in South Sudan had violated a 2018 peace deal, which ended a brutal five-year civil war.


Uganda said it had deployed troops in South Sudan earlier this month at the request of the government there, following a breakdown in the turbulent relationship between Machar and President Salva Kiir.


In early March security forces rounded up several of Machar's most senior allies, following clashes in South Sudan's northeast between the military and the White Army militia, a force the government accuses Machar of supporting.


Machar's SPLM-IO party denies any ongoing links with the White Army, which mostly comprises armed ethnic Nuer who fought alongside Machar against Kiir's largely Dinka forces during the 2013-2018 conflict.


The U.N. has warned a rise in hate speech could plunge the country back to war along ethnic lines.


Uganda fears a full-blown conflagration in its oil-producing northern neighbour could send waves of refugees across the border and potentially create instability.


"The Ugandan forces are currently taking part in airstrikes against civilians," Machar said in the March 23 letter, urging pressure on Uganda to withdraw its troops.


A spokesperson for Machar's office verified the authenticity of the letter seen by Reuters.


Uganda and South Sudan's military spokespeople did not immediately respond to requests for comment about the potential violation of the arms embargo, which has been in place since July 2018.


South Sudan's army attacked SPLM-IO forces stationed at a camp near the capital Juba on Monday night, the party's military spokesperson Lam Paul Gabriel said on X. Major General Lul Ruai Koang, the government military spokesperson, said he would issue a statement once he had gathered all the relevant information.


Machar's spokesperson Pal Mai Deng said on Tuesday that intelligence officers in Lakes State had arrested four SPLM-IO officials and shut down their office in the state's capital Rumbek.


South Sudan's information minister Michael Makuei and intelligence service spokesperson John Kumuri did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the arrests.


Last week Uganda's parliament retrospectively approved the deployment in South Sudan, first announced on March 11.


In a series of since-deleted posts published on X in the early hours of Sunday, Uganda's military chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba said: "I'm tired of killing Nuer," referring to Machar's ethnic group.


"Tell your leader Riek Machar to come and kneel down before 'our' President H.E Salva Kiir," wrote Kainerugaba, who has a history of making inflammatory statements that have previously sparked diplomatic tensions in the region.
