From Times Wire Reports
Ugandan rebels pulled out of peace talks with the government, saying they were no longer welcome by Sudan, the host of the talks.
The Lord’s Resistance Army rebels maintained that their security was threatened after Sudanese President Omar Hassan Ahmed Bashir said Tuesday that the only solution to the problem of the Ugandan rebels was a military one.
A rebel spokesman said the rebels would abide by an August cease-fire but wanted the peace talks moved to Kenya or South Africa.
