Cairo<\/strong><\/p>\n

The FFC consultations with the Sudanese Revolutionary Front (SRF)<\/a> coalition of armed movements in the Egyptian capital last weekend were aimed at discussing the reservations of the SRF on the Constitutional Declaration, agreed on by the junta and the FFC on August 3.<\/p>\n

According to FFC leader Wajdi Salih, the parties of the Cairo meeting made sure<\/a> to include most of the provisions of the Addis Ababa Agreement with accurate legal provisions that had satisfied the SRF to some extent.<\/p>\n

Salih expressed optimism that the peace agreement will be signed within two months following the formation of the new Sudanese government.<\/p>\n
