Baku-APA. South Sudan's warring parties are set to hold their direct talks on Sunday, according to the Ethiopian Foreign Ministry, APA reports quoting Xinhua.

The face-to-face talks between the rival sides in South Sudan were expected on Saturday, but failed to take place partly due to an agenda agreed upon, an official of the East African bloc IGAD disclosed earlier in the day.
