Talks propose Sudan’s warring sides coordinate secondary school exams.

21 countries want such steps to open a path to a humanitarian truce and a permanent ceasefire.

UN envoy Pekka Haavisto named prisoner exchanges and exam coordination as first steps, while the Quad of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and the US met alongside.

The hardest problem remains the Rapid Support Forces’ future, analyst Mohamed Torshin said.

If prisoner releases and exams succeed, a three-month ceasefire could follow, Torshin said.
