Kerry also said Kiir was willing to travel to neighboring Ethiopia, where peace talks are being held, possibly next week. Washington's top diplomat said this would "hopefully" involve a meeting with rebel leader Riek Machar.
US’ Kerry also said he hoped to speak with South Sudanese rebel leader Riek Machar later in the day to persuade him to meet with his rival President Salva Kiir and bring an end to the country's conflict.
