4:03 pm
country security that he was acting with the will of the people that i mean when i was happy to dangerous situation, threatening our country and community is attribute to a deeply rooted political polarization and a social comic and health crisis. this is why the president of the republic had to interfere and take his shoes of exceptional resolutions and measures based on our constitution to put the contract back on the right path towards democracy. all the largest political party enact says the president should call elections to prove he has a mandate in after, isn't in the newly formed coalition, but has spoken out strongly against his measures, describing them as a qu. why should one person says that he can embody the will of the piece? so if he is with the will of the people and if he is expressing their will have people he has an offer or for elections and let the people decide local and
4:04 pm
international human rights groups has condemned sides actions warning of a slide towards authoritarianism. while the developments in july were broadly popular to months, own people are growing frustrated and what they see is a lack of progress were planned for reform, endless se that could work, and the new coalition favor. with the typical crisis, we are going to the ethics of it's in the upcoming woodson non they would seize maybe the opportunity to show that affordably even by a power grab even by the gathering or the powers prison fight is unable to find the real crisis of the conditions that are social problems, economy, etc, with an economy on the verge of collapse, many say without political action, the situation can only get worse. alexia brian al jazeera, lets me to course what i'm ben. his message in judas jones is now. is it better?
4:05 pm
what more do we know about this coalition? nick her for main, susan, the coalition and you can sort of refer to them as progressive and democratic style policies. one of them, the democratic stream had initially been supportive, all was present, cause side had done this party, the democratic screen, but been very critical. not to but now they are pushing back. now they're saying that they want the president to appoint a government. they haven't yet done, haven't articulated any comprehensive economic policy or how the government's going to finance, but that none of these questions have still been on for 2 months to present. so i seized power, the parties off saying that i still open for discussion, though, and at the same time today, we've also had a statement from a lot of civil society organizations, very significant groups in,
4:06 pm
in june if you and i also warning the president of the danger of going to fall and taking over power without saying how long he would hold onto the range of power. the civil society groups. i've been particularly critical of how the president doesn't seem to how to count any of those people accuse of corruption. that's been one of the big complaints here and to miss you is a very powerful corrupt beetle, and they say the president still has not done anything about that. do, is it possible to gauge the degree of support the case? so you'd have not easily, no work protests in support of him a few days ago, the weekend when there were other protests against what he's done, the other protest planned possibly for this weekend on sunday for people supporting him as well. so you can, there was a, there was a belief when he took over the reins of our when he suspended parliament 2 months
4:07 pm
ago. that seems to be a general opinion that people were very frustrated with the democratically elected parliament, very frustrated with nothing being made. economy was a lot of trouble, and that had been exacerbated by the prom demik. and so there was people felt that something needed to be done, a massive why it seems of the past 2 months for the president has been given time by these a civil society groups. i'm by these 2 parties to offer some sorts of solution to the crisis unit. the faces find yourself in, but so far the present to haven't done math and this is why people's patients seem to be beginning to run out of anything. so that's a bennet smith in tune it. let's speak now to fidel raisa, who's the editor in chief of a missed call, which is a chinese news. and unless analysis website joins us from june, is also at for deal. first of all, day bennett was saying across one level saying that the president has been given
4:08 pm
time, but now opposition policies are running out of patience. is that how you sit? certainly that's true. we saw not only immediately the, the main governing parties that were sold them themselves lose power when you post the on july 25th opposing the news. we actually have seen other parties as well that initially were maybe on the fence that were sort of capital the or maybe skeptically supportive of july 25th to turn against and, and they're starting to coordinate with one another. more importantly, they're actually coordinating with the course want to just mentioned civil society groups, particularly the u. u t t. the, the main labor union, which count about a 1000000 members out of an 11000000 population. they're very important, especially the bureaucracy within the institutions. they are expecting more and more, they're pleasure with the fact that they are being left out of any sort of discussion
4:09 pm
about where can you go in the future. they're seeing this consolidation of the power? is that the presidency, particularly with new decree, $170.00 and new presidential order. busy the suspended part of the constitution on september 22nd. and they're looking at this thing. you know, the fact that we're not being consulted. the fact that there's a very small group of people just on the president who are being insulted really is a problem for them. so they say that it has losses legitimacy. so this coalition, how much could it all to the game board if you like, how much could alter the state of play? i think as time goes on, there will be more and more pressure on the president, particularly as he has been very slow to communicate his plans. on top of that, we've seen increasing sort of and will of people to go out in the streets and oppose him. the 1st demonstration against them a couple of weeks ago only had about 300 people. but the one on sunday saw close to
4:10 pm
about 3000 people. these may continue to grow larger. there may be more in the street. but again, there may be even opposition from the key political groups, whether they're political parties or the union or other civil society groups. these are the 2 things that have quite a lot of influence. quite an ability to, to really stop the president from, from moving forward on many issues. you can also see the business community working together alongside of the union of workers working together with the business community represented by the main chamber of commerce and utica. so the fact that there's the group sort of call that together and seeing that, they'd like to see some interest from the president. i suggested he's going to have a difficult time going for me to plan to be confused to go. busy alone is a question i have been at the correspondence smith, it puzzle to gauge. do you think the degree of support that the president hasn't clearly had support to the beginning, but as we said,
4:11 pm
people are running out of patience. hey, can you? can you gauge that? can you tell how many people, what kind of division in percentage terms of it's very difficult. we thought early pulling at the very beginning stages that showed widespread support for the president. certainly when he made vision, people went into the streets across the country, you know, at night breaking curfew since then we've seen that seems the deterioration. certainly something is important to become a little bit less on social media. we've also seen sort of counter protesters that these last 2 demonstrations against the president getting smaller number. but we'll see, you know, there's almost always a possibility that we will be able to mobilize the supporters, particularly if a find a particular issue that we can use to, to mobilize them in the past. we really focus on corruption issues. as a correspondent, i mentioned earlier we haven't seen quite a lot tangible in terms of the corruption efforts if he doesn't produce soon that
4:12 pm
may also eating through support among his base. right. interesting, thanks very much indeed for that for the editor in chief of moscow. jordan from to to thanks a lot one of sudan top military lead. it says the transitional government needs to take more active role. general mohammed have done dollar a frequently criticize the government civilian fraction of fading to govern effectively pose cues. the army of trying to seize power and want the administration dissolved. and attempted to last week is worse than tension between the 2 sides. i don't know what that means. they blame us. we are part of the partnership. politics are based on things. i don't like, but i blurred my lessons. i'm a military man. the council was created to have all the decision. and after that, they said it was a counselor consultation only. but if you are a counsel for consultation, you can oblige people to apply and implement your decision. let's be not to me having to do john. just live from cartoon mohammed. would you say that douglas words have done anything to ease tensions on the not a toll?
4:13 pm
actually, the tension between the civilians within the sovereign counsel buffy. ruley said don, as well as the military officers who are part of that sovereign council is an all time high, especially after last week's attempted, coo and we see a situation where the quarrels and disputes between members of the sovereign council becoming more intense by the day of the heart of the dispute is demand by the civilian complement of the sovereign council to reform the military accusing the military of coming in the way of reforms to ensure that people who are part of the former is g, a morale. but she and i think it out of the military. they also the question of arthur recovery and anti corruption with the military council. the military members
4:14 pm
of the supreme council withdrawing the security detail of members of this task force, which is charged with the responsibility of not only pursuing people who are considered to be corrupt and tollen state assets and funds that now has been at the biggest the trigger of the cut into a t if we are seeing between members of the sovereign council. of course, this is happening at the time when the people of sudan are facing the was inflation in a very long time. i was last here around this time last year and then the student is pound last about a 1000 percent to the u. s. dollar. and there is a base shortage of basic necessities and commodities in the country. and minister,
4:15 pm
when you talk to will tell you that the transition is not working as it ought to be . and they are not on truck hamden, they're going to say they are on track to organize the elections, which are supposed to take place in early 2024 or am i haven't leave the month. i'm having to do the speakers from car to tough canister. now where the taliban says it's planning to have meant to constitution from nitty 6 decades ago. the new rulers want to apply it only where it does not conflict with their version. that is lemon law goes straight to hash barbara in cabal and has your 1st up what is the significance of what the taliban seems to be trying to extend an olive branch to the international community by think look, we could have rec to the constitutional declaration of 998 with a tardy by way and power headed up. got it. that is that we chose to go for the 1964 constitution. why that's going to choose. and in particular,
4:16 pm
because it's widely seen as the constitution that pay the way for constitutional democracy protective the rights of expression, the right, the freedom of expression of the freedom of thought established independent institutions with an independent judiciary. however, there's a cap yet to that constitution. 1964 states that the king has the right to dissolve the parliament and appoint the prime minister. under the current situation, it seems that the supreme leader of the taliban, the middle meeting, the commander of the faithful. hey, that's a law will ultimately have the final state. he could be the one to fire the government and point to any of parliament, though, the parliament, sorry, or decide that this provision is in conflict with a chevy law. and therefore it has to be, it has to be changed. and how should, what's, what would you say the reaction to this is likely to be well, nick,
4:17 pm
this is quite an extraordinary moment. hitting up, got to stand the taliban sweep into a paula into carbo. last month has set into motion a series of events that are likely to change the dynamics. the general sentiment among the key players of the international community was that basically following the agreement, the tardy band with fit together with a different factions, agree on a national unity government that could be the way to new elections. and that would look into the bites of the minorities and women in particular that didn't happen. and now the tale by not saying that they are the ones who have the upper hand and they are the ones who are going to move forward. although they've been saying basically that they are going to be forming an inclusive government, the international community does not seem to be really impressed by what has happened so far. and i've been talking to gotten people over the last few days and also see any autonomy, but need it here in the capital capital. the people will tell you that basically,
4:18 pm
doing quite skeptical they would like to see women members avail position different factions of the society represented in the government with the biggest say over how to run the government. this is not happening so far within the taliban leadership, you have 2 different views. those who would say, you know what, we do understand that i've got a set of today's not got it out of the, of, of the past. and that is about time to introduce some reforms other which as you know, we have made massive advices to come to power. we are the ones who have to have a bigger se and remain to be basically still adhering to a very strict interpretation of shutting our law. and this is creating some, some concerns here. among many of the guys we have to wait and see what happens in the upcoming weeks, because these are really extraordinary times here in a lot of time. and they have from birth, thanks very much and has, has some reporting that from carpet. thank you. more still out of the news are including the british armies on stand by its fuel pumps. run dry in the u. k
4:19 pm

4:20 pm
were close enough because of, of the wind direction to give you a clear advantage of the volcanic eruption behind me. and you can clearly see in the words of the vulcan ologist, the multiple characters and facets of the whole county corruption. on the one hand, you can see the explosive nature with a lava not liquid by flowing in, in one direction down the slope. and then these gases are reaching 4 kilometers up into the sky explosive and one point a few scythe in the other with a cone being fragile lies by these intense volcanic activity. it's acting like a pressure cooker. and so this plume of cloud is going for kilometers up into the sky and was the airport of la, paloma isn't officially close to all commercial flights. have been canceled, given the situation here. and i just want to take you down the lava flow behind me
