Government and Rebels to Implement Peace Deal
- Share via
A delegation of more than 100 former rebels from southern Sudan arrived in the capital, Khartoum, to begin implementing a peace deal that ended Africa’s longest civil war.
Secretary-General James Wani of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement is the most senior rebel leader to travel to Khartoum since 1983.
The two sides will work on a new constitution that would form the basis of a power-sharing government between Khartoum and the former rebels. Under the January deal, they also are to share oil revenue and form joint military units.
