S.Sudan president offers key compromise for peace

JUBA, Feb 15, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – President Salva Kiir said on Saturday that
he will return South Sudan to a system of 10 states, a key opposition demand,
paving the way for a unity government to end war.

“The compromise we have just made is in the interest of peace…I expect
the opposition to reciprocate the same,” Kiir said, after a meeting of top
government and military officials in the capital Juba.
