NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — The African Union, European Union, United Nations and United States are calling for an immediate cease-fire and constructive dialogue between warring factions in Sudan. They’re also calling for an end to tension between Somalia and Ethiopia over an agreement signed with Somalia’s breakaway region Somaliland.
