Sudan peace talks collapse

ABUJA (Nigeria): Peace talks between the Sudanese Government and rebels from the troubled Darfur region have collapsed after three weeks, one of the two main rebel factions said on Wednesday. The Sudanese Government and thetwo rebel movements of Darfur said they would abide by an African Union proposal to break for at least three weeks before resuming their efforts to hammer out an agreement. But "the talks have collapsed already," Ahmed Tugod Lissan, of the Justice and Equity rebel movement insisted, saying his movement would not sign an accord on humanitarian access that would have been the talk's one clear success. — AP
