Saudi Arabia, US to continue Sudan talks
Riyadh and Washington intend to continue talks with Sudanese negotiating delegations following the expiration of the five-day ceasefire agreement, Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Sunday.
"Facilitators stand ready to resume formal talks and remind the parties that they must implement their obligations under the May 11 Jeddah Declaration of Commitment to Protect the Civilians of Sudan," the foreign ministry said in the statement, urging the Sudanese warring parties to enter into a new an armistice with the goal of eventually reaching a "permanent cessation of hostilities."
In April, fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) erupted in Khartoum and elsewhere in the country, leaving hundreds of people dead and thousands injured.
