I was interviewed by Carol Castiel, host of Voice of America's Encounter Radio, on Sudan, After the Referendum. The other guest was Jonathan Temin, director of the Sudan program at the U.S. Institute of Peace.

Here's VOA's teaser:
In a historic referendum last month, Southern Sudanese came out in droves and voted for independence from the north. Two top regional analysts discuss the challenges facing not only the new emerging state in southern Sudan but also President Omar Al Bashir in the north.
Here's the audio.
