Sudan says progress made on South Sudan talks

ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) — Sudan says significant progress is being made in talks with South Sudan as negotiations over their shared border entered a fourth day Wednesday.

Both Sudan President Omar al-Bashir and South Sudan President Salva Kiir are skipping the U.N. General Assembly in New York to stay at talks being held in Ethiopia’s capital. The two leaders have met since late Tuesday but have not yet achieved a breakthrough agreement.
