Sudan Tribune: Darfur groups reject merger with JEM before peace talks.  After talks with the peace mediation team in Doha, the venue of the talks, two Darfur groups expressed their readiness for unity and talks with the government but rejected a merger with the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM).  The Sudan Liberation Movement Revolutionary Forces (SLM-RF), which is a group supported by the Libyan government, and a group of rebel factions called the Addis Ababa group, which is supported by the US envoy to Sudan, held talks with the mediators. The mediators are seeking to reunite the rebel groups before engaging in direct talks with the Sudanese delegation.
