The United States reiterated on Monday its call for leaders of Kenyan political parties to avoid violent conflicts by having more talks to find a political solution to their stalemate. T
The exchanges between Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki and opposition leader Raila Odinga are "not enough and not a sustained communication to find a final political resolution to the crisis," State Department spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters.
The spokesman made the remarks after Kibaki and Odinga failed to make progress in talks solving the crisis that broke out over contested Dec. 27 presidential elections.
Some 600 people have been killed in the ethnic and political unrest sparked by the announcement of Mwai Kibaki's re-election as president on Dec. 27. For now, neither side of the feuding leaders has shown any willingness to compromise.
