During the meeting in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, President Ruto and General Al-Burhan reviewed peace initiatives, including the Jeddah Peace Process and proposals from the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD).
Accordingly, the two sides emphasized the urgent need to find a solution to the Sudan conflict, especially convening the IGAD Summit, to establish a comprehensive dialogue framework for the warring parties in Sudan, towards resolving the domestic political crisis.
Ruto and Al-Burhan also acknowledged the slow progress of the talks taking place in the Saudi Arabian port city of Jeddah, where Sudan's warring sides are holding talks to end the seven-month conflict.
The talks ended last week in Jeddah and failed to reach a ceasefire due to disagreements between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) over the redeployment of forces, IGAD said.
The Sudanese army insisted that the RSF withdraw from cities to protect civilians, while the RSF insisted that it would not give up control of urban areas.
