One of the key sticking points in South Sudan's peace process has been
how many states should make up the country.
And each of the political factions still have different views.

resolved.

However, another contentious issue is security sector reforms.
The opposition group led by designated vice president Riek Machar says
it wants the various armed groups combined, retrained and redeployed

President Salva Kiir's group says the reforms are a process that will
take time and believes the issue should not derail the formation of a
unity government.
The parties are scheduled to meet again before the end of this month
and the mediator says that would be the last round of talks to iron
out any outstanding issues.
The talks are scheduled to resume in about ten days time.
South Sudan's government says it will use the period between now and
