Sudanese peace talks to break 22 January, Taha to head for Mecca
Sudanese papers today said the peace talks which are currently taking place in the Kenyan town of Naivasha between the government and the SPLM, would be suspended starting from Thursday [22 January] until after the [Muslim feast of] Eid al-Adha, which is scheduled for the first week in February. The Sudanese paper Al-Hayyat said the peace talks would be suspended on Thursday and the first vice-president, Ali Uthman Muhammad Taha, would return to Khartoum on Friday [23 January].The paper added that Taha would leave for Mecca to perform the holy pilgrimage.
This shows Taha is not serious about peace. I nominate Sudan to be next in the war on terror.
