May 19, 2024 (JUBA) – The South Sudanese mediation announced the suspension of negotiations between the Sudanese government and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N) as of Sunday. This pause aims to allow the participating delegations to conduct consultations before reconvening.
On the fourth day of negotiations hosted in Juba, the parties were unable to reach an agreement on how to open routes for delivering humanitarian aid to those affected by the war and displaced civilians in areas under the control of the SPLM-N, led by Abdelaziz al-Hilu.
In a press statement following the suspension of talks, South Sudanese Foreign Minister Ramadan Mohamed Abdallah Goch stated, “We saw this as the final session in this round of talks, to give the parties a time to consult with their respective leaderships on the nature of some technical issues raised during the talks.”
