In this agreement, the parties reaffirm previous commitments and agree to conclude a general agreement on the establishment of peace and national accord in Tajikistan. The parties also agree that the agreement shall consist of separate protocols on political and military problems, the return and reintegration of refugees, monitoring and verification and guarantees of implementation.  

This agreement defines the overarching principles by which further negotiations will be conducted to resolve the North-South Sudan conflict. It calls for substantive discussions to be held on decentralisation, power and wealth-sharing, religious rights and the formation of a national army, which would include SPLA (United) troops.

This agreement articulates commitments to acknowledge the identity of indigenous peoples and ensure their cultural, civil, political, social and economic rights.
