ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) - Sudan's government and rebels ended a sixth round of talks on the crisis in the country's western Darfur region Thursday, announcing no agreements but pledging to reconvene in a month to push forward the slow-moving peace process.
Fighting between two rebel factions, which splintered earlier this year from the main Sudan Liberation Army, complicated more than a month of talks in Nigeria's capital, Abuja. The sides agreed to meet again Nov. 21 in Abuja.
"I don't name it failure and I don't call it a success," said government negotiator Yusuf Abdallah adding that he was encouraged by a sense of optimism among participants but found progress slow.
