The head of the South Sudan government delegation to peace talks with so-called holdout armed groups says he expects talks to resume in two to three weeks under the facilitation of the Kenyan government. The holdouts have yet to ratify the 2018 Revitalized Comprehensive Peace Agreement. The talks had been taking place in recent years in Rome. The new development comes as some holdouts are demanding the talks be returned to Rome for all the parties to decide whether they can trust President Salva Kiir. Albino Mathom Ayuel, head of the South Sudan delegation, tells VOA’s James Butty, the holdouts cannot dictate where the talks should take place
