President Omar Al Basher has announced that he will meet the first Vice-President Salva Kiir Mayardit in
Khartoum in the next two days to discuss the current crisis between the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) and the National Congress Party regarding the implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA).
Earlier President Al Bashir met the SPLM delegation led by the Vice-President of the Government of South Sudan, Dr Riek Machar, after postponing it twice.
After the meeting, the SPLM delegation held a press conference during which a Machar said that President Al Basher pledged not to let the Sudanese people down in the implementation of the CPA.
"In short we discussed the content of the two letters and the First Vice president will come soon to
Khartoum so that together with the president of the republic find solutions to the issues that have been raised in the two letters," said Dr. Machar.
He added, "in general the two parties are committed to the CPA and we as SPLM we think the implementation of the CPAleads to a democratic transformation and consolidation of peace".
Dr. Machar said that through this CPA a solution can be reach for the
Darfur conflict.
