Sudan government leaders refuse to meet civilian bloc in Egypt

Representatives from Sudan's army-aligned government refused to meet face-to-face with key civilian politicians at a conference in Cairo to discuss an end to the country's 15-month war.
   The conference in Egypt was meant to "initiate a Sudanese-Sudanese national
dialogue" to "unify perspectives" for an end to the war between the army and
the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, Egyptian foreign minister Badr Abdelaty
said.
