and how much power will the civilian government hold moving forward? i am rest inside of that and cartoon in an exclusive interview. the prime minister discusses the recent political crisis in the company and the way forward for the 1st time since dominican takeover of the la humble, talked to al jazeera mister prime minister of the lamb book. thank you for talking, talk to us. thank you very much for having me. i'm very pleased to be interviewed by hedges. either dat standing news channel known for its professional as thank it ah prime minister. why did you accept to come back as prime minister as well? this is a great question. good for as an entry to this interview, when i signed that political agreement, i had a number of reasons in my mind. chiefly among them is to avoid further

bloodshed, namely among the youth. a 2nd reason was a that i am adamant to see that transition into democracy completed. that's why i was keen on reaching this compromise in order to pay the way for democracy and the civil rule. another reason also is that that transition into democracy is the compass guiding you all my steps. all these matters are inter twine and above all, we have reached a political impasse within and without. and the political agreement was science has the ability to take sudan out of this dark tunnel and go back to the international circles. when back our respect within our regional and international surroundings. how would you describe what happened on october 25th?

let me start by defining what's happened on october 25th. you cannot be described, but a military take over in am on constitutional manner. and they're all norms and terms. it is nothing but of a cool. this is by definition of what took place on october 25th. so it's a coo and now you're back to work with the team that you have, who's in conducting a qu. all our choices as a human beings are governed by what is possible as a to started my this interview, when i waited to this agreement, we had the mind. one thing is still paved the way for our country to get back on the course of transition into a democracy and the severed rule. that's why we took this compromise and we signed this political agreement company about the the preceding take over

the relationship between you and military was terms. but some say that you will with dissolved into government. is that true? before what happened on october 25th. there were a number of initiatives, a number of efforts i myself presented to initiatives one in june. the 2nd on october, the 15th, all the initiatives posed were aiming at addressing the huge challenges we have been facing over the past 2 years. namely, reforming the state institutions and classes during the transition period. this has been occupying the faults of all the active players, civil and military, sir prime minister kenneth, tell me what happened on the night of the military takeover when you were arrested

. was about 3 30 in the morning when a number of military officers high ranking officers came to my residence. and they informed me that there has been at chains taken place at the beginning, i was told i would remain at my own residence under house arrest. however, 15 minutes later, those officers came back and i was informed that and the decision has been made that they would be transferred with my family to the hospitality palace. about 4 o'clock in the morning. my family and i was transferred into the hospitality palace and would turn it on the evening of the 3rd day where you are concerned for your life. i am confident that destination attempt on my life in mos 2020. when i accepted the office,

i was fully aware of the dangers and per hovering over my head. and i believe that what happened, i'm old. the transitions has been at the expense of the people for me, every sacrifice is worthy. they said, and his people have sacrificed their lives, the blood men and women. they have fallen as martyrs on the course of the journey calling for freedom and democracy. how does it feel to be free? again? freedom is a very precious value. you know, one day and cause the nation is that great humiliation to human dignity. however, if you compare it to other sacrifices, but this is denise people,

it is nothing mister prime minister. what about the fate of forces of a freedom and change? so they have nominated you as a prime minister. and now the parties in this civilian coalition are distancing themselves from the new political agreement that you just signed with mister out of hand. so how are you going to manage the freedom and change coalition is the largest sudan has seen in decades. it has been at the forefront of this glorious revolution. it will remain active and there is no democracy without political parties. however, what is left of the transitional period mandates that all these political parties and functions are required to join forces get engaged with the respect of supporters and get fully prepared to their legs and

race. it is only the election that will take the country into permanent lasting democracy where the people will have their say and leg the leaders. what about their protest on the streets? there isn't a committee to say. they consider your agreement with mr. han at bet trail off to 40 people being killed and more than $200.00 injured. how are you going to convince them? the political agreement was science was dealt and the 1st place. on one fact over the past 3 weeks. i have been working on the political agreement simply to avoid further plot say to them, and that's why i hope with this agreement, we will end complete the bloodshed. as i said, every drop of blood is pressure. i fully appreciate the anger among the people. i

know that many may differ, reject or object to the political agreement though, science, however, i have no personal gains in the agreements. i'm fully driven by the fact that we should avoid further bloodshed put them and all the violations, every drop of blood as they said is very precious. and therefore, i hope together we can beat a compromise where we avoid further bloodshed and paved the way once again, 2 words transition into democracy. so from what you have said, understand that there will be no member of the force of freedom and change in this new transitional period. is that through the goal concept of the upcoming government is that it will be with technocratic government

made up of sudanese qualified professionals about one and a half years remaining of the transitional period. and the upcoming government, according to me, should focus on very specific issues. chiefly transition into democracy home and the related obligations namely conveying the constitutional conference and holding the election as a schedule do are fully aware that mom and holding their elections will wired at least one full year. it may drag on for one and a half years and what is left of the transitional period? i hope we can leads when an agreement upon an independent technocratic government to lead the remaining part of the traditional period into the upcoming elections. have you consulted with the cooperation between the signing the agreement with mr.

overhand although i was under house arrest. i was in constant communication with a large number of wide spectrum of the political leaders of within sedans. and i had a very intensive talks with a wide spectrum of the papers. all these efforts on all these fuses that's going to came together in this agreement, the initiative made by the dignitaries on wise men, the initiatives made by university professors. other initiatives were proposed by parties to the peace agreement, in addition to other group and individual initiatives. all these initiative where melted in one political agreement, could you specify some names as facilitators and mediators. i'm sure that there

must be some ethnic actors involved in this process. there are a number of active players activists. lawyers. politicians doesn't show up. so with what happened on october 25th, how can you trust the army again? and the process of rebuilding confidence require patients. it also requires all involved to transcend above what is written. we should engage practically to join forces to join hands to agree on the plan forward in absolute transparency and veracity. it also requires that we should all work on the pending issues with your patients and seriousness in order to

create the necesary atmosphere whereby we can trust one another's. and over the past 2 years, there is no doubt, there were a number of positives and these positives can be built on where gradually people can regain trust. whose prime minister, how are you going to come or resolve the differences between the political parties . that was the major reason for the whole crisis, wasn't it? i mean, we should not raise our expectations as i, under the transitional period. what, but in this manner of a large number of parties and factions, will engage to find common denominators, find a common ground and reach an agreement and if necessary,

compromise in a i believe that hardwood nationwide and the great coalition can rebuild its spirit and reshape its objectives in order to reach the election as a schedule. have you been given guarantees ah, by the army that you will be free to perform your duties as prime minister of the country. this is a key part of the political agreement. i sign up that the prime minister should have the power and the authority that is to form an independent technocratic government with all the liberty and without any precious. and this is what i signed for. so was prime minister the accountability at least 40 people were killed and many injured, but also there are abreast and harassment. so how are those responsible going

to be held accountable? as i mentioned earlier, i pray to god almighty to accept in his mercy the phone and martyrs. and one of the key issues in the political agreement is the necessity to initiate these all out and dependent and transparent investigations for all the violations committed, killing torture, and all other crimes and violations committed over the past period of time. i'm all last found guilty. the tried before the court. well, mr. prime minister formed many committees in the past and just a few have produced results. why should people have benefit in any committee you form going forward?

i fully appreciate the state of this satisfaction among a large number of the committees, namely the investigation committees that were formed and failed to arrive at final conclusions in their investigations. however, the issue of our tents of inclusive, all our transparent investigations would remain the key objective. then when we form a committee, we do not enter fear in the action or proceedings they are independent and have the liberty to act and professional manners. however, the swift findings should be arrived that in order to find those responsible and penalize them. so how are you going to pick your ministers? do you have the full independence to be able to your team as prime minister of the country? i think so. i also believe that allows number of

mediators and the active players. i'm all those who contributed till when creating the current atmospheres and bringing the views closer together. we'll have a bigger role and we'll continue to contribute while forming the upcoming govern. what about their political port prisoners, what is their faith they're supposed to be released, but is that an a process regarding to that? another key issue of the political agreement was the release of all the political, dayton ease. i will do all in my power. i will exert all due diligence especially that today i was released out of the house arrest. i will do all in my power to have those,

but it will date in his release and enjoy the freedom of expression and fully practice their democratic rights. we'll, we'll do our best and swiftly. is there a process and any timeline regarding their release of their political prisoners? yes, we addressed this issue and there are, for alma says that they will be released within a couple of days. and those days have passed and i believe that they will be released and very soon what got it just to to, to make clear. and the army has said that several of them are ah, having facing the chars and only they can be released by the court decision. and now with this new political agreement between you and mr. overhand so they are supposed to be released without a court decision. is that correct?

no, ma'am, we will, are exerting all what we can, we are exerting maximum effort to see them released some screen minister. justice. i'm not talking about the justice for what happened over the past month, but also the process of transitional justice as well. this is one of the priorities of that evolution to achieve justice and inclusive lasting justice transitional justice, which means that this is dan. we should all work together to achieve this justice and see justice administered and serve to the root of families of the victims. we also should see this justice allowing our country to move forward with and in this context,

we should conjure up the past experiences of sudan and other people's rwanda, south africa, et cetera. however, we are all guided by the fact that families of the victims must feel and seize us. this truly serv suzanne has more than one army and several armed groups. so their political declaration that you're signed with mr . overhand a spoke about or did it create him a formula to unify the army and also to speak and about the a security sector reform. how are you going to reformed army, while the army so much in full control, was started working on that particular issue and also forming a one uniform unified army national army with an

u combating doctrine. we cannot be back on our feet again unless we have a one unified uniform army and we have democracy restored in order to maintain. so dan's territorial integrity. it's rich's resources and above all to serve safeguard the constitutional rights and would allow the civil power still function. so do you have a certain timeline for the present transitional period? are such as are the, the constitutional court and the transitional parliament, and more importantly, dear any timeline for an election with respect to the elections? yes, we agreed upon the fact that the elections will be on or

before june of 2023, when the size of holes will be left to the people. under the ballad bucks, free and transparent by the end of this period with prime minister. now, you are the prime minister of a country that the protests are still ongoing. and the violence still being used against people just wait heading toward the building of their prime minister. here i have seen people being tear gassed if anyone is killed or harassed . that's going to happen in a country that you are the prime minister. how are you going to accept this political agreement is initially built on one fact avoiding further bloodshed, therefore, and i believe that no further blood should be shed peaceful demonstrations is

a lawful right. which was that by our people throw the continued struggle we will continue to defend and save god, this lawful, right. i respect all those who took to the street today and the days forward and whether those in agreement or again as the political agreement, it is the lawful constitutional right to agree to disagree. and that's why we hope to cement the traditions of democracy, where difference can be accepted. we need to see the free people expressing their opinion freely and, and transparency, and all possible peaceful manners. we will continue to defend save god this, right? even if we are in disagreement, prime minister is signed

a deal and your 3 people present their mr. ami cheer for mr. ham. and the head of rep is support for this, mr. committee. and you, you look quite alone. do you feel alone? or the fear that people will leave you because many of them feel that you have already left them. i'd like to speak frankly, he and i don't have any personal gains to remain a figurehead or to join a particular group or a party or to have higher popularity. i'm all driven by their responsibility placed on my shoulders and the ambitions and hopes of the sudanese people. that's why i made up my mind and i signed the political agreement . although i am fully aware that large numbers of the sudanese people may differ

object or reject the agreement because their expectations are higher. however, i would like to reiterate that i do not have any personal gains and the political agreement, otherwise i wouldn't have taken the office in the 1st place with all the challenges and problems over the past 2 years. and therefore, i'm not worried by the issue of this isn't personal gains or my personal status, the decision i made and i believe it's was at correct decision and to the best entities of the people. that's why i moved forward and i signed the agreement. prime minister up to lamb duke. thank you for talking county . thank ah.
