1988 or 2006 because the people they had in the last 10 years, a certain freedom. and also now there are equipped with iphones and the social media are very active. and the, the main source of information in jamar, a facebook, twitter, and therefore they, if i follow these done, i see they are very determined not to keep up. and if they don't give up and if they are so angry to also use while ends than i think it goes on and on, that's the while and we create otherwise, islands. and therefore, i fear a full blown internal armed conflict. you say things are different this time and the civilian population is different this time. why then would the military give up power? they've got it because if they were going to give up power,

they know with this population they would face accountability for the crimes. they committed not yeah, yeah, that's my guess that they don't want to keep up. and that was also the root causes off the cool because they realized we after the, a successful election of the and all the november last year, they realized on sunset she was very much determined to make now the reforms happen . and now the military realize, oh, she really wants to change the constitution changed some cheap blow. therefore we have to act and to change the situation. italy's former interior minister mateus l v needs appearing in court for his role in blocking a migrant rescue ship in 2019 for right politician prevented 2 vessels from docking . for days they were carrying hundreds of people. rescued from the mediterranean desperation lead to some migrants jumping off on the tempting to swim to shore,

to see a former interior minister on trial and italians realize that important. but this same time, we're also a very different italy than just 2 years ago. at that time in 2019 the migrant crisis, the refugee issue in europe in italy was the pre eminent story for talent and for the international media covering it shall be neat with the face of an anti migrant movement. here with closed door, he said, he says he was just carrying out the policy of the government and he shouldn't be on trial for what was a government policy in place. we also have a very different italy and the relevance these days mathias mateus have been in himself. as i mentioned earlier. he was this case in many ways, book in his career. he was this rising star on the right. now, he had competitors on the right that are buying for power and looking to dislodge him from this important leadership position. still ahead on al jazeera, a notorious alliance of haiti, gangs take to the streets insisting they didn't kidnap
