2:02 pm
a sub you'll get to choose a base journalist, he explains the challenges facing of a lease next. in 2018, the prime minister was appointed by parliament. this is his 1st time being elected . he was, he received an overwhelming support for, but it was a vacant rash on election. a number of states including to grey that did not participate as you know, the election that they held a year ago as what part of what provoked the conflict that's, that's been running for almost a year now. i mean, the prime minister seems to have a wide spread support uniform like support in many parts of the country still. but you know, if you're, again, is an important country with the 110000000 people with an economy that's going. but it's also dependent on 8, it's been having issues with the u. s. government u. s. 8,
2:03 pm
which has been supporting aid or humanitarian assistance to some of the victims that have been coming forward since the beginning of the conflict. according to the un for more than 1011000000 people are facing famine into grad loan conflicts. i mean, i'm high region, and se the conflicts were received is overwhelming. the need is huge and it's also in our fiery region, the government will be in a challenged position to address some of the challenges the country is facing. and this conflict is also pushing, or we some of the, for an investment that have been important to us building a new image, being from on a dependent nation to an economy that respected. so the prime minister would be busy from day one. i was suspect. well, let's speak now to our aloe who's to see the electra and lord kill university joins us live by sky from london. i must other welcome to the program. so i meant he came
2:04 pm
to part with a good deal of reforming zeal, releasing prisoners, opie, up, band opposition, groups piece, deal with eritrea. what happened? what went wrong? did it yeah. when, when he was appointed in april of 2018, and he came to powell in the back of the popular protest movement. nearly within the united states, the command at that time was for the federal system in the country to be democratized. and for governments to have i'll 20 but also broader. ready democrat, the consumer issues will flow issues when he came to office departments to capitalize on those grievances, tied to a project, an image of a leader that understands what the grievance will the people lead. and we're going to determined to address will change. and in his 1st 2 months, it obviously has taken some very progress, a very radical majors. and precisely because of that, he was, i think,
2:05 pm
widely accepted is supported by different actors in the country. but shortly after once he began to consider the power, tried to take the country, it gradually different. it made an invitation that they canceled the months that people were making. so there were, he would always say, of course, that he would always say that he was, he's been acting in the best interest of the country in this, in the face of, apart from envy, else widespread ethnic division. well, the country is already a divided country. it's a country with an imperial history where values, nations, and nationalities with different languages, different cultures were held together by force. so one of the most important political question in, if you get historically is what we call the question of nationalities way. and why is even groups wanted a certain level of autonomy and stuff, the government at the local level, and that's what, at least you're ethically, the 991 political sentiment and the 1995 constitution tried to do so. what people
2:06 pm
were asking whether they were protesting from 2015 to 2018 is not erotic of change or the return to a pass. but democratizing the system that existed in what ibm it trying to do is basically centralized power and, and signaled as much his intention to return to the country back to the kind of imperial paid. so that is precisely, i think the ideologies that underpins much of the conflict today and it will be an end to war with the things i read united states and this war began somewhere to do was really starting to get. busy started in abbey ambridge own regional state, where basically use security forces intelligence, police to eliminate almost or a significant power for political forces any normally i get here on the election all alone by himself. ok. so i think when you look at the underlying conflict ideological division,
