The talks were opened by Gen J J Odong, State Minister for Defence

The two delegations discussed the security situation in South Sudan and how it can be resolved through peaceful means.

The deliberations took place in cordial environment and agreed to explore all possible ways that can facilitate and quicken the ongoing peace process in Addis Ababa.

It was also agreed that the two sides will continue to have regular interactions to fast track the peace process so that South Sudan can return to normal
