6:05 pm
widened after last month failed to attempt by force this lawyer to the she bought sides blame each other for slowly forms a worsening economic crisis. poverty and corruption in military have been g to creating the conditions for this discord and security balance from the in congress to given that the bahamas, you know, in many ways and since we had a state in this hybrid transitional arrangement, i and those who have been part of this movement to push the government out are themselves, she, members of government. so any criticism of government performances very much so criticism. oh, the had one gains of the pro democracy uprising have not led to reforms many people for full. and now with more political upheaval, sedan, it's once again on the edge, priyanka gupta, al jazeera, alive now to her to him. and let's bring and have a morgan. she's joining us on the phone here by you've been speaking to people who
6:06 pm
are out on the street to remain out on the streets. what have they been telling you? well that really has 2 people who are out on the street from the moment. you have tens of thousands of people making it to the headquarters where they haven't, but that's the thing that they don't want them to take over. once i return to the constitution declaration, then we have the thousands who have been teaching a pallet. we have military announced that they have taken over over the affairs of the country and some elections are held in july 2023 compounds that on how large group i'm sorry, just have to go back to the test on the 21st. come on the rate the before the anniversary solution against the military leader into dan, inside one side, enjoying the fact that the military has taken over now all about the time. but
6:07 pm
then you have the process that we've been rejected. this voice is their anger at the military taking a barricade on the road saying that they do not want to confirm. and this is not just me talking about various dates around the country. people saying that what happened is if they should be available that they have been holding for 2018 when they took to the treat against president obama, the sheep, and that they don't want to believe through the government, but rather one that would lead them to elections under democracy. so what is your sense about how this is going to unfold over the next few hours, perhaps, or the next few days from what people have been telling you? well, the head of the army, because the commander of the army, general, not the hon, issued a state of emergency room emergency. there should be there should be additional
6:08 pm
motor presence on the street to contain the if you're around the country because one of them that the military in charge of the affairs of the country because of the political deficient better lead reforms into the main congress of transition we will be based on the state of emergency but has been announced. we are likely to hear a few down by the army as well as having been on the road. but again, people have been saying that they do not recognize the statement that cannot be put the 100000 television. they say that they're going to continue to be competition. interesting. it's likely that we will be giving more and more freedom, a change or vision their members will provide the actually because it's called the btn and they've called general and dr. now, other people are sent to that. that is like for the army teachers because they say
6:09 pm
that they wants people to do their work. they want to continue when they could be a 3rd. that's the complete opposite of what be freedom and chase coalition. i'm calling so it's lucky that would be the site either on again, on so should be on the cloud on every single platform. they could fly back in each other out to show that they have the bigger presence. okay, thank you so much. have morgan for that live update from hard to me in another development from who done the bees tribes in the east of the country, say vale, and there are demonstrations that have crippled a part of su, don since september. so the tribes have express support for the military takeover. they say they were excluded from piece deals. the transitional government struck with other rebel groups last year. with me for analysis is our corresponded mohammed, val, he's covered to done quite extensively. so 1st on this issue of the beach or tribes,
6:10 pm
what is the significance of this particular tribes supporting the military takeover? but the importance of this is that, you know, we have a big chunk of the population or who think they have be marginalized form. and yes, remember that the east was also a, a place of rebellion a long time ago, many years ago. and there was a piece deal with them and also they have at, they consider themselves one of those components of a population that need to be listened to, to say a voice should be heard. and that's what's been going on in sudan. people who take make at the carry arms, they get listened to and they get given a shell of the, of, of a power. so they think that they also have a that i to the, to, to have a share of power, which they claim didn't happen during the deals that happened since the overthrow of them on pursuit. but beyond that, and this is just a, did you just sign off, you know, something deeper going on in this, in the situation so than it's not just about democracy. so just about the, the economy. okay. economy and democracy. they also will issue these are,
6:11 pm
these are at the surface, but yeah, b, b, b, beyond that, deeper in the layers of this problem are the regions, fringes against the center. people who think they have been out of, you know, the, the game of power for many years. you have the dar for you have people who could define, you have people in, in, in, in the, in, in the blue nile estate. and so on. rebel leaders there who are looking for a shell of power and components of a population who think they are also different on ethnic grounds and so on. the racial factor is that it's a very huge mosaic of thinks there, but also you have the ideological ideological eb factor, which lies deeper than all of these factors. you have the right now when you look at what happened in 2019, i mean even many of the supporters of omar bashir and he's a congress party. they were either silent about what happened or they even participated in the process because they were fed up with him. they thought he did,
6:12 pm
he did, he, he did not do well on, on, on the economy at what they thought and decent it alternative could be, could be in the horizon for him. but when it, when they saw that, the new, the new people in power, those people, the, the change and freedom, a coalition of parties, mainly leftists and communist parties, their ideology, you know, air the ideology, play the part they said, no, no, no, this is not. these are not that people who want to little so than right. these are people i go to takes that into and none islamic path. yeah. because of, so remember, they worked them in the revolutionaries. they were, they were calling for more open nurse o'connor for more modern society. they were a claim. there were an attack in the symbols of what they represented the the all of model, the she which is it, which was an islamist, at least in the, on the, on the, on the surface of it is law missed based on his land values,
6:13 pm
according to the tradition society, so what, when you look at the state to there, you see that the division is also a long ideological lines. one side of the population think that it is about the values of the societies about. so a society that has be, that is majority conservative and they are looking at, you know, it so than drifting into a western style type of, you know, are of got a governess, answer and, and social life. so thinks are in those on top of each layer, there is brain, many layers, yes, releases. but if you look at the events today, and particularly, let's say over the past couple of weeks since the military had said in itself that they were target for qu, as you know, to attempt to in, in september. so what has been the sticking points between the civilian leaders and the military leaders in this transitional government in the recent past? well, remember that also those, those, the, the factor of personal survival in the military are a time, you know,
6:14 pm
it's not just military, they are a sort of type. and they think that if they in front of the, there is no trust between the 2 sides. this is a problem. there is a deep, deep rooted mistrust between the military and the civilians. and so then we know that, you know, a history of cause, a history of revolutions against military generals and so on. and that has now been strengthened and sanctioned by ideological divisions. the military are seen to be proper shoe, even though they may the core against him. but they are seen to be a continuation of the islamic leaning front. that has been ruling sedan for fit. yes. for a long front. so the, so the military on the other side, the see that they are in danger as leaders because they have a history and are for they are accused of human rights violations and so on. and so they think that the day, the seed power to these civilians whom they accuse of being left, it's communist, anti islamic, and so on. that's going to be the end of them on
6:15 pm
a personal level. they might be in jail for of all they might even be killed. that miss pross, d proto mistrust. please bring a big part away from democracy slogans of economic progress. and this is also person. okay, thank you so much. much out for that insights, we will continue the conversation with the highlight shave, who is the sudanese attorney, he but he's joining us from barry and thank you so much for speaking to us and algebra. first of all, your initial reaction to the development of don today. thank you for having me. i think what's, what's, what's happening right now is a true stage by the military transition council who has been dissolved. so it's the secretary, i guess, the democracy, the student. okay. found by for just a moment because we'll listen to what the general abdel for dalbert han had said earlier about the constitution. just listen and listen. i live and i'm of we suspend the oppression of a number of flights because of the constitutional draft commit ourselves to old
6:16 pm
agreements, signed by us. we dissolved the sovereign consul and the cabinet. we put an end to the job of the mayors, their secretaries and the departments to generals of the departments in the states will do their job. so you are in general, but what hon there. and he also did seem to say that the military had a constitutional judy to intervene. what is your reaction to that? i think it's good to go on my behalf. but judy, too interesting to decide whether democracy decided as a rule. but this is not what they have done in the morning. what they have done in the morning is basically decided to dissolve the government. and this all the supreme council and reinstated certain provisions allowing the military transition to come back again with to in part of the constitutional chart for provisions. right, let's talk about these professions because our reporter was mentioning earlier
6:17 pm
throughout the day that many provisions of the constitution do remain right now. but some of the major parts, like the formation of a sovereignty counsel and executive cabinet and the rules they should play. those provisions have been dismissed. what is the significance of that? i mean, the significance of that is that we don't have a government. we don't have a civic in lead government because you just hold the server to counsel. you just hold the cabinet. what else? it's remaining, this is, these are basically the hell of the political agreement that the find, the transition to it comes for fine with the, with the freedom with a c before the before the chart chart. so what's remaining is basically a transitional. i'm going to transition on counsel trying to, to, to get on the country with certain provisions of the, of the, of the constitution doctor to make it look like this is not a cool, but it's
6:18 pm
a cool. he is sure as the people, general hon. the elections will be held in 2023, and he's also said that squabbles among political groups, i pushed the military to take power in this way. what's your response? i don't think. i don't think this is, this is a correct. i don't think that anyone has switched him to do that, but i think there's, you know, 3 main factors that lead to the school. one of it is there is an argument about who should be running the the, the ministry should be handed over the, the prisoner and she officer to construct a civilian. this was an issue and it should have been resolved in november. another issue might be the fcc and handing of of icpc criminals to the, to the, to the hague. so i guess i'm also the economy. the economy is being the sudanese government has made it very clear from the beginning that one of the one of the,
6:19 pm
one of the duties that we have to do is to go back to the international community and they've done successfully that. so we have this sanction lifted from americans . we have the initiative agreeing to wave certain certain debts from sudan including principal and interest. so i think we were in the right track. yes. slowly, but we were in the right track. so to use the argument that the sudanese government failed to try to, to what this is, people want to need is as it's ridiculous, what the, what is the military's and game? do you think and what, what does the fs see do going forward? i think there is no way they can see from the student the study can see the out of there and they exist to, to, to, to, to live. and they are there because of the nice people the soon as you probably want them to be there. and this was every, don't think the 21st or fall october. the marshals are massive, around, on
6:20 pm
a sudan. know, just for to me, it's all over the place and in the country. but i think the move is perhaps tactical. at best strike. could you put that on a catch roe? this would take them anywhere. but this reminds me for me to remind the, the audience as well. this happened when they were negotiating with the f. c, back at the time and then the, the committed massacre and to sit in and talk to me. so i think the idea was basically to position themselves to be in a better position to negotiate that i feel demanded to get 50 off the significant also because the fact i'm not sure what would be the strategic and tactical game behind this move. but i don't think it will take them anywhere but then transfer committees now, you know, pushing hard for this situation to be diverse. ok, thank you so much for joining us from my mama and rain. thank thank you for having me. so let's just look at some of the global reaction that's been coming in. the un
6:21 pm
secretary general has joined voices condemning the coo while the us special envoy for the horn of africa. jeffrey feldman said this, the u. s. is deeply alarmed by reports of military takeover, adding that it would contravene the constitutional declaration and the democratic aspirations of the sudanese people and as utterly unacceptable. felton goes on to say that any changes to the transitional government by force puts at risk us assistance. and the u. s. embassy and cartoon called on all actors who are disrupting so don's transition to stand down and allow the civilian lead transitional government to continue it's important work to achieve the goals of the revolution. 5 to our white house correspondent, kimberly house. how could, kimberly, so we understand that the white house has not responded to these latest developments . what are they saying? that's right. the us president, not here at the white house. he's promoting his domestic agenda. the u. s. state of new jersey. but aboard air force one, the deputy press secretary,
6:22 pm
career interest. john pierre was speaking to reporters and told reporters that the white house and the president, deeply alarmed by the takeover of the transitional government, the white house saying that it rejects the actions of the military. it calls for the immediate release of not just the prime minister, but also others that are currently being held in house arrest. and the united states continues to strongly support the sudanese people demand for a democratic transition that this is the will, the sudanese people in the united states support that effort in terms of aspirations for peace, liberty, and justice. so now what is being evaluated according to the white house is how best united states can help the nice people. she's that goal that what so troubling for the united states and all this is that what has transpired is exactly what the united states spent 2 days in terms of meetings of the region with the various
6:23 pm
parties trying to avert. and so that is why the white house now looking at next steps in order to try and assist the sudanese people and the goal of democratic process as well as piece. yeah. and on the us envoys visits. kimberly, i mean, he said that any changes to the transitional government by force puts at risk u. s. assistance. what kind of assistance does the u. s. gives to don? well, it's so varied in terms of not just economic support, but to security, support, training, and humanitarian. and so it's really a full range of assistance that is supplied. and as a result, this is what is now at risk. there was a real concern of the united states that in fact the timing of this again on the heels of 2 days of meetings where the us special envoy, jeffrey feldman, met with these leaders, including general bur hand warned it specifically against the qu, that,
6:24 pm
that any of us assistance would be tied to those actions. and clearly those were words that were unheeded and completely ignored. so the united states is feeling, i suspect, betrayed by all of this because there had been some assurances that this would not transpire. of course, the exact opposite has happened and the view of the white house really is this is a blow to the united states efforts to ensure the student whose people transition to not just democracy, but also peaceful society with liberty, hope and justice. thank you so much. kimberly hallett. good for that reporting from the white house before we tell you about some other regional reaction, we do have an update from to don and the doctor's committee in the country saying that 2 people have now died by gunshots. so that's according to the doctor's committee who posted on their facebook page will chase that story and bring it a little later or to you right here. and i'll just 0. but now for some regional
6:25 pm
reaction, each of the saying the security and stability is to don is integral to its own security. and calling on all parties to show restraint. cuts are echo dot sentiments calling on all sides to contain the situation and not to escalate. saudi arabia is also pointing to the importance of restraints. com and the escalation here with the news our on i'll just there are, there's plenty more ahead including why israel's supreme court has the phone, the decision by a palestinian family against the forced eviction from their foam and occupied east jerusalem. the u. s. a rare judicial inquiry is getting underway into the death of a black man at the hands of new york police and 24. later and 4, we hear from one of our former masters for united throughout the club school. ah,

6:27 pm
as the rural areas. there are various reasons for this, but the main one also recently compounded by the fact that the international community is withholding billions and billions of dollars of much needed money here everyone. we've spoken to whether they're civil servants under the taliban government taliban fighters, people who work in the health sector and nurses, people who work in centers of drug rehabilitation. they have not been paid their salaries and months. people do not have the cash to feed themselves. also recently a couple of weeks ago, even world food program saying that only 5 percent of households across the country are getting enough to eat. so desperate times you're really going to get worse with the onset of winter temperatures dropping below freezing. here it will snow it will be wet, and also the aid agencies warning that many people who are displaced will be cut off for much needed aid and russia briefly. also calling for the international community to release those funds. we've been talking to people here, one man yesterday telling us that this is not the money of the taliban. this is not
