5:03 am
a fashion transitional government that has been leading the country home of the sierra link to god. we dissolve the sovereign council and the cabinet, and we put an end to the mass jobs and under secretaries. and the state governors will revise everything and will take decisions to watch everything general behind as the military had to intervene to and political and fighting with a cross to dan. this fury tens of thousands of men and women can breaching on the street to show the anger against the fed and military takeover. i didn't have an urgent call to all sudanese civilians who want to protect the revolution. what the military is doing is a betrayal to all citizens on all fronts. it is the duty of all civilians to move and to block all roads outside to prevent any military force to move right now, all of us must unite to show the truth. i didn't know was the, hey, know, the return of the old regime is impossible,
5:04 am
no matter what the excuses or the justifications the return is impossible. this is the 1st statement of the people, women and men are refusing any kind of fraud, democracy and civil society. the military has arrested several civilian members of the transitional government and moved prime minister of the lamb duke to an undisclosed location fronting global concerns. you is very concerned about sedans, military forces, reportedly putting, ah, prime minister hand duck under house arrest. and as well as did meaning other members of the civilian leadership. and we urge for the past really into down the pro democracy forces of freedom and chase coalition. born out of the 2018 uprising that out, that long time leader model. but he has called for protests and strikes to resist the coo division between the military and civilian side of the transition. government widened after last month failed to attempt by forces loyal to both sides,
5:05 am
blame each other for the lo reforms, worsening economic crisis, poverty and corruption. many people are angry, but some also bring the news of the military takeover. a coalition of political parties has been staging and sitting in front of the presidential palace for more than a week, urging the military to take control its members. they. some of those who participated in the 2018 uprising against the government have not been listened to . the military have been key to creating the conditions for this discord in security. and certainly in congress to given that behind, as you know, in many ways, since we had a state in this hybrid transitional arrangement and those who have been part of this movement to push the government out are themselves key members of government. so any criticism of government performance is very much self criticism. i think the hard one gains of the pro democracy uprising have not led to the reforms. many people fought for us. and now with more political upheaval,
5:06 am
the nation is once again on the edge. here morgan august 0 to me rosalind jordan has more on the us reaction to him on these qu, from washington d. c. the biden administration is taking every opportunity to say that it condemns the coup attempt in cartoon on monday. not only has the by debt ministration decided to suspend all $700000000.00 and economic assistance to the transitional government. it also says it is watching very closely how members of the holder are behaving as the process carries out. this is what med price had to say about the prospect of sanctions against members of the military. at rosen, it is very early hours. this happened overnight. we're evaluating the situation on the ground. we're watching very closely. we're communicating and coordinating very closely with our allies and with our partners around the world. so i don't want to
5:07 am
get ahead of, of where we are. but suffice to say that we are willing to resort to any and all appropriate measures to hold accountable are those who are me be attempting to derail the will, the aspirations of the sudanese people and those who may be responsible for violence for violence that we may yet see, the co happened just hours after the u. s. as special envoy for the horn of africa . jeffrey feltman loved the country. he had been left with the impression that the process of political transition and reconciliation was still on track according to some in the state department. now, the big issue is whether or not this will affect the resolution of another regional crisis. that of the grand ethiopian renaissance dam, otherwise known as gert officials here at the state department, say they need to deal with the political situation of cartoon 1st and worry about other regional issues. later lately i spoke to cameron hudson, who has
5:08 am
a u. s. special envoy to sit on. he was also director of african affairs at the national security council. he had lines the us options to punish the sidney's miniature into lights of the cars. of course, their sanctions are a possibility. i don't think they've been prepared so that those take time to, to prepare. there has been discussion about creating your sanctions program that would be targeted against individuals who are undermining or preventing the civilian transition. so these would not be the same sort of sanctions that plagued sudan for 30 years under the bashir regime. these would be very targeted against individuals in the military who are trying to subvert the democratic process incident. but again, those take time to put into place. i think the options that washington has right now are the, the diplomatic tools are the obviously the financial leverage. things like suspending the debt relief negotiations that are going on. that would,
5:09 am
that would bring sudan debt really. that's a very powerful tool at washington, still has to use in all this, but i think the bottom line here is that our envoy was there warning of the consequences. the military took the decision anyway in my analysis that suggest one of 2 things. one that the military was so threatened by the power of civilian rule in the country, that there was nothing that was going to undermine their effort to maintain power, or number 2 that they had received guarantees from outside of the country. perhaps the gulf states, perhaps neighboring egypt to go to step in and to fill the gap that the cut off from us and european assistance is going to create that they felt confident that they could replace whatever money that they would be losing with new money promised from outside actors that we don't know, but something has happened to change the calculus of the military to think that
