ADDIS ABABA: Sudan’s government and rebels from South Kordofan and Blue Nile launched their latest round of peace talks yesterday, as mediators called for an “urgent” end to over three years of war.
More than one million people have been displaced or severely affected by the conflict in the two states.
“We are really hoping this time to finalise the negotiations in which both sides have been engaged in for a few years,” African Union chief mediator Thabo Mbeki said at the talks in the Ethiopian capital.
