President Salva Kiir has ruled out his government's intention to demarcate the border unless the land belonging to South Sudan is returned.

In a meeting in Wau Kiir said the government will not initiate any demarcation of the border unless the areas of Kafia Kinji, Abyei, Heglig, Karasana, Kofaranas and any other areas stolen by the Sudanese army are returned to the South.
