ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - South Sudan's main Western backers threatened on Wednesday to impose targeted sanctions against the African state's warring sides, warning them that patience was fraying a day before the resumption of so-far futile peace talks.
The negotiations have made scant headway beyond a ceasefire deal signed in January but which later collapsed. Some Western diplomats question the commitment of either side to end the conflict, with each blaming the other for truce violations.
