Sudan Rejects S. Sudan's Oil Transit Fee Offer
From Al Jazeera
Sudan has turned down South Sudan’s proposal of a higher oil transit fee and an $8.2bn financial deal, ruling out any comprehensive settlement of outstanding issues by the August 2 deadline.
The offer and its refusal on Monday came just days ahead of a deadline imposed by the African Union and the United Nations calling on both sides to reach agreements on issues including oil transit fees, border demarcation and security.
