  • After four months and the sacking of a government delegation, the stalled South Sudan peace talks resumed Wednesday in Kenya, the latest effort to end the conflict that has long crippled the African country's economy.

The peace talks for South Sudan, which had been stalled for four months, resumed in Nairobi, Kenya, following the dismissal of the government's delegation by President Salva Kiir. The talks, facilitated by the Community of Sant'Egidio, aim to address the ongoing political and security issues in South Sudan, particularly focusing on the implementation of the 2018 peace agreement. The previous delegation was sacked due to their failure to make progress, and a new team has been appointed to negotiate with opposition groups. The discussions are crucial as they seek to resolve conflicts over the integration of opposition forces into the national army, the allocation of state positions, and the management of oil revenues, all of which are pivotal for stabilizing the nation and preventing further civil unrest.
