and trying to achieve their democratic country get to have her insight on today's program at hello, please introduce yourself to our viewers around the world. hello everyone, i'm hello to her, and i am political analyst and the head of a think tank in hot or cold confluence advisory or i guess. thank you for being part of today's show. you need know, reminder about how we got to where we are in see dance current situation. but for the rest of us, his a short recap. let's do a quick timeline taking you back to april 2019. that was when amar alba, she was overthrown in august of the same year, military and civilian factions agreed to share power. look at how broad those smiles are. how happy people were. we fast forward to october of last year when she, dan's army seized power in a military coup. and then he, we are right now in july. we've had debbie violence in the blue now state heber right now is in the blue now state. she's been reporting for out 0. i'm going to
11:36 am
show you some of her was reporting, but it gave her can you give us just a brief idea of what spot those clashes in the southern part of sudan before we hear more of your reporting? well, it's mostly the issue of tribal administrations now for people to know sedan, the issue of tribes in your administration in chief saying it's it's, it's quite a significant source of power and it's been more so since 2019 because you know, like the tribes have been given quite a lot of political significance and they've been used by a certain political groups and our arm groups to try to show that they have more power and more influence in certain areas and places. so this whole thing here in blue now started with the fact that you know astro from what we understand being here on the ground is then the houses they wanted to have their own travel administration and for the tribes that are here. they've been here for centuries,
11:37 am
they believe that the houses don't have that right. and then there was also a lot of incitement in a we've been seeing videos online, people saying that the houses should not be given land. they have no right of being here. and of that incitement, all of that anger intention just exploded. so to that that's, that's what we ended up seeing. you know that bible clashes, homes being burned, shops being looted, people being killed and displaced. this has taken my when i have a look at hitler's reporting on the finance, it's been a wrapping in the blue. now state in see that has taken up. this is what remains of a jelly up the less home into down south, east and blue. now state his searching for any personal belongings he can salvage most were burned in fighting between members of his hammock tribe and the house on her. this our lash at ohio, we were surprised on friday morning by members of the house of tribe attacking us some burning prophecy. so we had to flee. my brother was killed land right here. we
11:38 am
found his body hedge to pieces. little now we homeless and the situation is really tough to know what i'm. i'm wondering so he's got tribal conflict in the south. we've had recent violence in dar for we have protested, still protesting against against military leaders out taking over from a very audit transitional process. do they all connect up, or are they just all separate, separate instances that are challenging the people sedan in their efforts to get a democratic leadership in place? absolutely. all linked up. we saw a very significant spike in the levels of violence across the country. since october of last year, so as you say was so intense fighting breakout in parts of west for and going along to south for south could assign do. now you can almost trace this crescent like
11:39 am
trajectory of violence from the war, which will probably now spread to other parts of the country has already spread to other parts of the country. because as him said, the house, the group is that the landed group. they don't have tribal or group lands. and so they exist in many parts of the country. and this attack, what they see is an attack on them has led to protest and unrest where these house groups are in other parts of the country. so there's been this spreading of violence like wildfire. all of this is connected to the central politics of sedan because you know, the peace agreement of 2020, which was yes. done during made during the power sharing agreement. but it was heavily supervised and controlled by the ministry component, which is now in government. and that has thrown up all sorts of conversations. and more importantly, the fact that these groups are being displaced is leaving a lot of people to think that that is intentional. because these areas where these groups are all the way from doc for all the way down to circle define and blue nile
11:40 am
and in the east, these are the production areas. there is gold, there is uranium under this very said people are being displaced from and so people, some dues, think of it as a part of an economic enterprise of sudden interest groups in call to him and elsewhere. miss rain. yes, so i totally agree with hulu. dan heber, and let's not, not forget that demetrius trained to do anything to prove that their existence in power is very much needed and is the only way for peace and security, which is, of course, we know just that excuse for continuing this liquid situation of the government, i think one of the main problems that we are having and facing, sudan is the lack of governance in the local school of low. and, and that's what actually did the tribal leaders, they call them civil readers. but for me, we know that there are tribal leaders to actually have more influence and more power. and it doesn't need an expert are in disadvantaged context and interest in
11:41 am
his history to know how much sensitivities to actually touch this tribal heroically and touched the, the, the tribe leader or the elders of this tribes. and this is exactly what the people did in order to influence and to burn more in conflicts in different areas. and not only by the way the house groups, other different ethnicities indifferent. ah, tribes have different problems in sudan. and all of these are exactly as good mission of is impacted by the sent the absence of the central government and the central control in the country. in general. however, i'm just wondering how the current leadership is handling all of these multiple different issues at the same time as to don is challenge in terms of finances and resources and just providing for its people. well, provision is quite low at the moment, isn't it? so i, there obviously is challenges in terms of providing the basic services,
11:42 am
electricity of water, you know, proper schooling hospitals, those basic necessities that make up a state that a country's always been having challenges in terms of providing that. and it's even worse these days with the economic challenge and the fact that at the donor aids that was supposed to be gears donor funding, that was, was to be given to sudan was suspended following the military takeover. now to this specific conflict here in balloon i lou, when we spoke to people and the military, when you hear both sides, they seem to be blaming the military for not acting fast enough. you know, it started under 14, it could have been contained within hours and obviously the ministry does have the power. we've seen that because, you know, we've seen them basically dispersing protesters firing tear gas at them. fire live ammunition, stun grenades. it so we know they have that ability, but here in blue and i'll, you know, both sides say it took them too long to respond to them. days, not hours,
11:43 am
days to respond. people were dying, profits were being burned, people were being displaced, and there was no reaction. so obviously they have different ways of handling different situations. and the question here as why did they take so long? who um, did you ship to try to contain the circle conflicts or to try to separate the, the people who are fighting the tribes that are fighting and, and embassy are like, so people here are asking that question. you know, what is different? is that because they want to see this tribal conflict happening and the one that chaos doesn't happen and ensure that exactly. and if they have them, you know, so these questions are being off here. i'm going to put to you right now, let me, let me put this, i guess, because my, my mom, okay. who we spoke to earlier, and then you can pick up a meeting of it because it's the same line of thought. a man who we spoke to earlier had an idea about why conflict was happening in sudan as the involvement of the military leadership. and people who have been supporting them. this is my theory. i'm intrigued by your theory, but left isn't
11:44 am
a map festival. i think it's really important that we characterize what's taking place there as the latest consequence of a political logic. those govern sudan. since independence were by security leads, in cartoon, secure size and exploits the resources from the peripheries in order to fat in their own pockets. the cooler light that came to power, aperture toppling the civilian administration. in october 2021. they have applied and reinforced the same political logic, making them drivers of conflict in the peripheries missing day. yes, as a, as we are speaking right now, one of our young people or was killed or in her tomb in only remained to be particular or only a few hours ago. and m, as, as he been mentioned, this variation of the,
11:45 am
of using the power of the government of the power of the guns is really herb, not strange, but very obvious that they just want these conflicts to continue. and as they mentioned are also members of the sovereign council, the current sovereign council, who were actually members of some of the armed movements are the one who are she started this problem. so it's actually started by people who should be the lead of the communities and should be a seekers for peace and should be people who are actually advocating for the p security. i'm it's, it's very were obvious, as i mentioned also that the economic and burdens are very heavy on the, on the, on the citizens. i mean, the average average in weight off salaries is around 70 years bermonte, yet the mostly expenses for a middle. a family is around $400.00 new errors or approximately. so the
11:46 am
huge gap between the salary wades and between the m. i mean, the prices of the goods and the huge inflation rates that we have in these days. and of course, the stress from the political position where a lot of people think there is no way out because the military is on one side, the politicians on one side and there is no a light at the end of the tunnel. there is no way of correctly. they don't, don't see any way of people coming together and trying to move out from the situation yet young people are dying every day. and yet you come an insult or olders and all leaders. so i think it's a cultural, it's economical is political, the conflict that's happening right now in buena is just an exit small example of what's happening in sudan for the past that seeks to do to 8 moses lose. meanwhile, per pro democracy protest is all continuing and i want to get your take home on
11:47 am
that. but 1st i'm going to go via a city that happened in her tomb. and this was just a few days ago in july because i'm looking at the tactics of the pro democracy protesters because we thought 2 months ago. and i still protesting. let's go to the sitting festival. i'm with mr. n. is the school for me, we're revolutionary, is created. a set in is much better than confrontation out of it in there's a real upbringing for the revolutionary to say. and that took place in front of military institutions from april to july, 2019, actually created today's revolutionaries with their resilience and courage that are now present in the streets. the are a foundational component for the revolutionary and are necessary tool for peaceful resistance. how are these protests going generally they they certainly have stamina. the processes have stamina, all they make
11:48 am
a difference. yeah. yeah guys they are. we saw these protests continue solidly, sometimes once, twice a week, sometimes more than that a week consistently since october of last year. since the morning of the to itself, that to me showed a very significant opposition to the status quo as the regime has it. and of course, we know that this regime is purely trying to survive. so regardless of what it says and recency, the head of the southern council made the statement that he was willing to hand over power to civilian government. we the unfortunate people, what he does on what his regime does on behalf of their interest does not follow that. so what we know is, and what the existence committees and pope democracy movement strictly in the streets have been very sort of astute in deducing, is that actually there's a long way to go. and the more the time proceeds, the more this regime is trying to reintroduce itself and bring about this
11:49 am
restoration of bush is lama military regime just without pushing. so we're seeing all the great thing fighting in the peripheries with christina, being targeted. we're seeing, you know, root of law being thrown out, the window was being protested, being killed. this feels very much like she is bringing back the old way of ruling, hey, but go ahead. well, the thing is, you know, yes, we've seen processors on the streets and he has there been a lot of persistence that agree with hold on about one but, but there needs to be, i mean, you know, looking, looking at, by looking back at saddam's history and looking at there at the military records in it as it always has to come in and right now it's not, you know, you've got the military on site, you've got the paramilitary record support forces in the, at the side. you've got the arm groups that are citing with the military on a 3rd hand over there. and then you've got the civilians on the other, on the 4th side, basically on the other side of this equation. and then you've got the pro,
11:50 am
haven't we thought that we've got a square? we've got a square full pot. his. this is a hard to quit engine, which is why we're doing this. everybody. he don't comments, questions on you to send them to us. i can send them to either right now on, on, on youtube. you got. com. i'm sorry, i'm just trying to keep up with our, our full points here. so this is complicated. go ahead eva is, is complicated, but let's not forget, you know, for bas years regime to collapse or at least for a temporarily there, there had to be changed from within and to have it there was these conflicts happening to bravery? right now it's a trial. it's tribal conference we're seeing and are for incurred to find in blue, but it's not an armed conflict, so it's on a full on arm conflict. so this regime has, i would say a bit of more in lifeline than, than, than brochures regime because there is no arm group that they are currently having to fight because all the officers fighting is now with them. so it's posing a bit it's, it's a bigger challenge now to the point to walkers movement back van into and i thought
11:51 am
it was the point, the 2 big groups that didn't sign the piece agreement. you have the delay. i've been, why didn't you have the spelling, which are actually the biggest groups, and that's why they didn't feel the needle, the pressure to join the peace agreement, persistent, 2020. what you have right now is the weakest defective me rebel groups at the time . joining the so called peace process, which brought about no peace and isn't really much of a process or an agreement. so actually you do have 2 major role groups outside of the framework of this regime. and they do pose a threat to this regime. what i think we will see more of its festival, more interfaces between different groups and groups. so that is a wash with small long what. what is the person in? so they are they going to chat to each other? they're gonna join up with each other. what is, what does that mean? well, i think we will see some realignments, or there could be certain groups joining with each other. but we could also see new sort of zones of company as complex a new and new contestation. be some alliances,
11:52 am
but will be also be new compensations because things have changed thickly and that always creates base competition which may have been equation unsolvable. let me just bring in one more thought here and then i'll go straight back to you. mystery because we've been talking about the military leadership, so i want to bring in the head of sedans, ruling sovereign cancel, because they were talked at the moment between various groups in sudan, and then the military have taken themselves out of that theory of talks that's happening right now, and this was the reason why when you hear this misery and i really would like your, your response immediately off the back of it. here we go. or the room going up. i will tell if i call on the people, especially the youth, to add here to peace. everyone has the rights to express their opinion and your sacrifices are appreciated. and your hopes were democrats, transition off,
11:53 am
filled. your armed forces will not stand in the way and get out of them. well, i'll be well, we all know that this is a very hypocrite, a speech because for many years their military institute was part of the governing and a bars of the ruling component in sudan, which is a very bizarre situation. but because it stayed like this for a long time now, the military thing that they are giving something that actually belong to them, which is power to the civilian. and that's why he had this attitude of we are going out you, i agree between yourselves and then come back. and it's is just funny in, in, in, for me it's not misleading, but it's actually leading us in the right direction. because getting the military out of the equation off, the government is actually the main request by all of these protesters in the street. yet albert han was actually gambling and he was, and he was putting
11:54 am
a lot of money in all of his eggs in one basket. which is that disobedient will not agree any time soon. and i think this is a very dangerous perception. yet it might be true if the emitter a politicians and i different groups did not actually reach a formula where and delivering the power back to civilian is possible. actually have a go ahead but no agreement, you know, like let's not forget bad. yes. it looks like all the way forward because obviously it's clear to them to, to, to the production right now with what they want on their dawn. but then again, political groups have always had their differences, right. you know, where we're talking about civilian groups and it's divided into 2 camps, right. you have an hon mouse who has stepped out of these talks and they're currently suspended. but you also have a site that supported the military takeover that of actually called with the
11:55 am
military takeover. so it's not like, you know, the military is completely out of the equation. they're out physically, they have the allies. so it's like a proxy presence right now. so yeah, it is still a complicated equation and yeah, yeah, thank you. i was never good at math and so i, it's a, i'm a, it's, it's interesting having you unpacked this for us is one more, one more voice i want to include in our conversation. this one comes from hello, hello, excuse me. am because you hear about the pro democracy protest is what they want the, the different factions amongst the protesters, but hell out very clearly explained what her issue and i thought i purchased as a, she's actually are with the current leadership. this is what she told us area you mean our presence in the broadest movement. we've been agenda unless. ringback understanding that this is an exist and she'll tell them that they understand or that they cannot strive. they cannot exist peacefully with our eyes and
11:56 am
medicine, islam governmental entity, a that can see. and we have already seen how the balance of violence against women is extremely elating. across the country, only a few weeks ago, a young woman has been sentenced to this vice tony. this is a type of government that apparently we are struggling against. as we may activist watching our discussion has stay in hyper bow. what should be done to bring more stability to sedan, hyper bo arts as their own question. they need to 1st identify themselves as a country rather than tribes. another comment, a solution, political education, being realistic about power blocks is unrealistic to create ideas because sudan has so much to lose. and currently there's chaos. one more from i men,
11:57 am
the better solution is to divide the country to federal states and every state has its own parliament. how would they even work? now i'm arguing the youtube view as i, i'm just curious from you, allude what it is like an eunice ring, and just in a sentence, if you could, as at the very end of the show, as somebody who is from sudan to see this as your country just a personal view in a sentence. hello, you go 1st. i think sedan is re making it state, and i think the crew has always been the vehicle for the largest type of, of political changes. so i think with the pro maximum mister hold steady, the changes are coming. thank you. in this ring, a personal view to and on. yeah, i just want to build on what you had mentioned the problem and the question is at what cost? and when the change is coming, this is the 2 questions that we are trying to actually have a balance between what is actually costing us right now to do this. but of this way
11:58 am
. and is it the best way to do it or not? answering hulu, and however, thank you so much for your analysis, having us to understand a very complicated equation of what's happening in sudan right now. thanks for watching. i see next time ah even marvellous was brought to when a site is from the northern province of chuckle when she was a child. she's a member of the comb indigenous community. her family was escaping poverty. she says, discrimination has been part of her life last month in argentina and some survivors, and descendants of the com and mccoy people took part in an unprecedented trial of a case and goes back nearly a century ago. the trial for the massacre in that by the face shows the serious abuses that indigenous community suffered in this country. only 1000000 of the
11:59 am
45000000 people in argentina consider themselves descendants of the original indigenous groups. most of them live in poverty and continue to fight for survival . argentina has long prided itself of a european heritage, one that often neglected and persecuted, indigenous groups. trial of not by piece a step to revise history and give indigenous communities the place they have been denied for too long, inequality corruption, repression, and dre the political, it just decided to cost to the piece of cake. i'm sure it won't be a documentary to explore the desperate stage of democracy in lebanon, hulu, through the eyes of those who are losing hope every day. our dreams are becoming blue. democracy maybe democracy for sale on al jazeera ah
