and bag the prime minister. to remain firm against has to this forces. me we reiterate our cool to all libyans throughout the country east to west north to south to the necessity of giving priority to the interests of the country unifying the ranks and working together to lift libya out of this crisis i say to the international community that it should not equate between the aggressor and those who defend themselves or between those who seek the militarization of the state and those committed to a democratic civilian country or. the u n recognized governments are said to have been deployed from the city of misrata to the west and south to fight have to his forces. therefore asked like but we suffered no loss for dollars it's the border that one family area was hit believed that we held back on the use of our air force in order to protect civilians and public and private property any dead fighter

7:53 am
on the ground in france foreign ministers of the g. seven group of countries have been voicing their concerns several foreign governments have been wanting to leave or have to those forces not to attack tripoli they say that have to support the talks which are still expected to start on the fourteenth of april with the hope of using elections as a way out of libya's a two year conflict g. seven foreign ministers attending a meeting in france also issued a statement saying that libya's oil facilities must not be used by any faction for political gain if libya's opposing forces continue this latest battle for control through to a political solution will become more difficult for the. tripoli. let's get now more on the international reaction to the unrest the united nations says it is still planning to hold talks on

a road map for libyan elections despite the fighting the seven foreign ministers have been gathering in france pledged to use all diplomatic channels to push for an escalation. while russia's foreign minister has warned against attempts to blame either side for the fighting over of says it's up to the libyans to determine their own fate through talks neighboring egypt also expressed concern saying that the crisis couldn't be settled by military means well to meet in is a research fellow with chatham house and he says it's difficult for khalifa haftar to back down from this offensive. i think we're entering a more and more dangerous phase in the last twenty four hours i think what we're seeing is an escalation. afters forces seeking to support the offensive and in response further forces being sent from misrata to the capital to oppose that offensive so unfortunately it looks like the momentum is gathering and that major clashes could be could be witnessed i think it's interesting to understand the
7:55 am
motivations for this offensive because in some ways it seems quite a surprising move in fact a lot of the discussion was how a political settlement might be coming in the near term and that it might heavily favor half there and actually what we've heard in recent weeks is a lot of criticism from have to opponents saying that after was effectively being given too much so in that context and only ten days out from the national conference that have to launch an offensive was the u.n. secretary general is in tripoli certainly has caught people by surprise i think at the same time it seems likely that if that was the play and controlling that tripoli was the goal then the hope would have been that it would have happened quick and now that this is set in and forces are being mobilized it looks set to be a much more sustained campaign certainly following the speech that have to made on thursday announcing the advance on tripoli it's very hard for him to back down and
7:56 am
see how he gets out of this position i think it's difficult to make too many predictions on the ground at the moment because we see that in libya often alliances can be quite fleeting and shifting but you would certainly say that at this present time it's unlikely that have to forces are going to prevail in tripoli and that raises a whole host of questions. and moving to some other news now thousands of protesters in sudan have marched on president omar al bashir as residents and then nearby army headquarters in the capital khartoum it is the first time the crowds have reached this part of the city since anti-government demonstrations began in december the latest marches come in spite of a government crackdown on dissent in germany has more. the they are calling for revolution and these protesters headed for the army headquarters in khartoum the latest in a way for protests that began in december over the price of bread and escalated into calls for an end to president omar bashir is three decades. the longer it
7:57 am
takes for bashir to step down because the protests will get but if you walk down the streets you will see a just from five years old up to fifty or sixty years old they're all coming out of the same thing and want him to step down security forces have responded to the protest movement with a fierce crackdown killing at least sixty people since the protests began according to an international human rights group. despite the tough response to dissent the protests continue. and activist posted this video of herself on you tube. when we will take back our dignity and will take back our country as well the people's will is above everything you need to understand that the people have spoken thats it. at one point there were sounds of gunshots other than that you could say the protests on saturday were peaceful.
7:58 am
president bush has stepped down as head of his ruling party in the hope of calming the protests but the demonstrators insist they won't give up until he resigns as president he german to quit. sit in his american journalist and activist has helped organize protests against bashir in the u.s. and joins us now via skype from state college pennsylvania thank you so much for joining us i just want to start off by asking you i understand you have been organizing protests in the u.s. but you also have been lobbying congress the white house and the white house what are you asking them to do. i give you a thank you so much for having me on this program our message is complete alignment with what the protesters are saying ensued and we're also campaigning for freedom peace and justice as sudanese americans we have our first amendment right to freely assemble freely protest today we had
