Both the North and South Sudan have declared deadlines to settle their disagreements. Omar al Bashir announced “We have agreed to have committees and have given them deadlines to reach a solution on all the pending issues.” The two sides have failed to resolve disputes over oil and borders, especially the border region where rebels remain. There were no actual deals made, but the two presidents made it clear that they intended to work towards a peaceful relationship concerning these issues. Kirr explained, "My government is ready to discuss any final solutions on all outstanding issues, be it on the economy, security, borders and Abyei's status.” Kirr said “we left the war station in 2005” and has no intentions of instigating any more war. The 2005 peace agreement ended many of the conflicts between the two sides, but destroyed the South. The leaders are working to prevent further conflict and are pending the completion of the 10 crossings on the north-south border. On October 18 the leaders will decide where exactly to place these ten crossings.
