african, secure he nice to see you mano the fact that this one large group, the c p c is on board and that they control 2 thirds of the country. is that enough? do you think? oh wow you enough perhaps, but you know this the server or the group spent this particular group is c, p c is actually one of the largest. so they are compliance is a significant whether it's an office or another question, but the fact that you have the government side on the c p c group agreeing to some sort of a, a ceasefire is significant for a significant portion of the country. so the, the, what the president said here is that the ones to allow in some humanitarian aid and as space for dialogue so that it came to resolve some of the issues. so yes,
4:42 pm
these 2 groups are agreeing to assist for fire, hust us a significant potential and a president who declares the unilateral safe, i must believe he is doing so from a position of power. what? well tell us about that is is the, is the president in a in a stronger position to be able to do this in a way yes or no as you know the russians and the rondon ser, helping our current government to try and maintain more control older of their country. so they did decide where he asked some confident is to do a unilateral assist fire at the same time, you know that this is some sort of an offer to draw any on the groups. woo woo can bastardi hays hays power a little bit more so day day to start on this one. or he has their confidence to do

4:44 pm
di, did control and the minerals not being controlled, that they are people within these booths or want to take power c b. when we say a coalition, jaqueline, the standard missy bc's made of so many different groups and they're actually quite a lot of different groups in, in, in, in the central african republic. so there ambitions are very different depending on who you talk to. but we know, for example, that bos, easy ones, power, and also wants to control areas, would mimic mineral to reaches start up out of the world. we talk about that often . so i'm glad we got the chance to to do that with you monitor can say from the university of aberdeen. thank you. thank you very much. driving in hong kong, 7 activists have been sentenced to prison for their roles in pro democracy protests last year. their sentences are between 6 and 12 months, they've been accused of and fighting others to take part in unauthorized assemblies
