4:10 pm
stay in a pass on here. exactly. there is a button and most of all these codes you're talking about in the introduction actually by disenchantment. or the leadership and the various franklin countries. and of course, with the relationship between the leadership unfroze, especially in the size of economy and defense. people are talking about just by the presence of products, especially in this house of wireless still continues and i'm groups a life truck i, the and i. so i holding vast cherokee in some of these. i really and countries. i spoke to one political on the political, a secure tennessee. yeah. just a few hours ago. and he said the situation developing now and couple in sort of funny dates or justifies what people in the news that have all been have been talking about all the time. that they has been neglect, i told them to collect of the voting population and of course,
4:11 pm
little minds between the leaders and froze. it needs to be sort of are the over it's partition of results of little to show for the ordinary person on the street. so they use this widespread disenchantment, and of course on to french sentiments, printing across the house. and now there are concerns that this will spread even farther beyond francophone countries. so now that many of the countries were talking about, but critically elected governments are still struggling to deli by democracy dividends to that people indeed. so what are you hearing from the news as street? what are people the saying about the latest to engage on and people are really it really saying that this is it's about time it's about time to talk ties to pros. it's about time to liberate ourselves. we haven't seen got bone or protest isn't good bone or set of friends and good bone uh, flushing russian uh, chinese or even north koreans like either way. we sold them here in new jersey. but
4:12 pm
the new just situation is probably different from what of change in income on them, simply because i'm is there a struggling with security issues? yeah, i need to also struggling, you know, basically the level of property. yeah. it's really, really striking and people are really just enchanted. that property was widespread now, and there is nothing to show for it. and right now they believe that what they have in, in place now, the ministry government here could of course, top ties with process. i'm probably stuck a new deal with the country, some of the used to, especially with china and russia. i find the address reporting that from 90 in these a thanks very much shock. my as well, the whole world has been waxing to the crew in that gap on french crime is uh, elizabeth born, said from couples for mclean. your ruler was following the situation closely. china, meanwhile, is quoting for the safety of the present foam there to be guaranteed by the crew
4:13 pm
leaders. and the use of foreign policy. chief, joseph burrow, has expressed consent, but the stability of the whole region of the yet another minute treat code. as during the tests about that in paris, now the test to go outside the company's embassy, the in the french capital. what are people saying that the dozens of people gathered tear outside the gaffney's embassy in paris and a sent in a very upscale area. in fact, an area where the phone, the family and lots of real estate, a huge real estate, whole for the entire so as of to be the source of some control, the same people are being set up. i think i'm gonna step out of the way and look at upon rounds and i'll show you some people don't thing now waving a slides, a few more people are coming and watch. some of them moving, telling me is that they feel as if today is a new day full gap on they feel as if this is a peaceful
4:14 pm
a revolution. they will have a peaceful transition to democracy. and they told us, i think, talking lot about from the former colonial power, they say that they feel that phones has had ample opportunity to support the gap. and these people, bob is in the palm. the family was feeling that solves as, as to say, you don't have these ties with the phone, their family supported them even though people here say that the phone guy, the full, the leader of gabble and evaluate them. the phone for them, as they say, have done very little show ordinary people. i've done very little to move noise the country and have they done the safe and fast, they would have been supported. but as they've done nothing, this is what people have been saying. they need to move on and follow these down to sam's. so i, so if you think of old ones and to be in control of every destiny and those towns understandable from the reaction of the french political elite, we've had formed the french at 5 minutes. elizabeth form saying the powers is
4:15 pm
watching the situation very closely. also from the spokes person for the french government saying to say ours condemned the crew to, to all the tyrese's pools on people in gamble, to uphold and respect to the results of the recent election. so certain these art classes with what people here is, oh because many of them have said that this election was not free was not fast impactful. those results as far as they all concerned, all nolan points. so that's what we've been hearing in french fiscal circles. very surprised, perhaps because from the federal have these ties with the leadership in double and they're all a number of military personnel and double and on the french face, there are a lot of french interest in gap on, in terms of large multinational terms, how energy for example the big energy giant. so aaron, mass, a big mining jobs file error message. he said that is suspending a corporation. so in the countries i'm seeing how the situation to the town. so
4:16 pm
many french businesses will be concerned about what is happening in gap home. but as i said, people here is saying that's part of the problem that those businesses have been making a lot of money. that money's been leaving the country. how does now not being a spread amongst the population, the ordinary people in gamble, and that is why we need to change the circle. this network is a line says for 3 hours on the for sale, that is really own the help the privilege, the messed up is behind discussion about the brand, the view that from outside the gap, on embassy in paris. thanks very much latasha. okay, well let's go back on to african cons. now we can go to library be where we can speak to catherine solely because catherine, you were just trying to get to gap on full size of the presidential election box. you failed to get accreditation. took us through what happened and why yes and uh we, i have been talking to a many people in the board um,
4:17 pm
throughout the selection period. and yes, we have been trying to get a credit station um to travel to the country and cover the election. it's been uh, 3 weeks trying to get that. it was not possible and we are not just talking about uh, so i'll just say are, are the international journalists a while also denied accreditation as well. and we also know that to all international observers like the us and you can union and others while also denied accreditation. so they were not able to observe the elections in the board. and that's why a lot of people that we've talked to in the board. i said that they do not believe that that election was credible and they are very frustrated as well. those ones
4:18 pm
that we have been talking to. and so we have seen through the weeks a lot of changes that were made by the electro commission changes pertaining to the election and the procedures as well. we us, so in the lead up to the election. we so uh, the internet being shot down. uh we so um, cost fuse that was imposed as well. and, you know, during that campaign period itself, uh, on the flat, on the last day of campaigns, uh, president ali bungle when he made his speech. he said that he knows that there are some individuals who are trying to over through the government . and we have also been hearing um, throughout that time of the ruling party officials who were very,
4:19 pm
very uncomfortable about these grouping of opposition leaders. presidential candidates who induced a single uh, presidential candidate and this had not happened before. so there was a lot of, uh, g, 30 nice. a lot of people in the ruling party was very uncomfortable about that. and that's why we sold this stuff very fast developments. uh, the in time net cutoff and things like that as well. so we were in the born in 2016 covering the election there. um that election was disputed as well. the like the um, the uh the, the, the, the opposition lead the van. and that's been the position lead the event. and i said that the election was riggs. the was pull,
4:20 pm
selection of violence, of people died. i the i, those was injured as well. so right now, the double these we $3.00 and for that process so frustration, i said that they just wanted change and this thing, this change and they're very happy about it and date. okay, katherine, thanks very much. and bring us a little bit of contacts that catherine. so i look forward hearing from nairobi speak now to mary raja below. she's the editor of africa international and joins is from a young day in time. a really great to have you with us. just want to bring you some news that we're getting in from the african union cooling and just meeting with burgundy. it's kind of go and kinda rude to analyze the situation in gap on the a you calling it a to attempt. what do you make of that? as well as soon as the dust is not settled yet, we are not sure that to do. it has been successful,
4:21 pm
but they are many sign. russ. i mean the african union and he's a new piece of organization. they need to, to make a statement. why don't we see in the streets what we see happening? owl by our looks like the cool use now john say, and i mean in central africa is lydia has been turning um the the, the, the view all the ice to, uh, towards south central africa. but uh, the situation nice. i would say quite different in a way that the um the, the, the main street of quoting time in west africa is in security to reason into hell and, uh, and all that,
4:22 pm
that set of issues in the central africa. we have uh bridges and been here for why uh, some of them so bad a long time. uh. but to get me, it was is a specific case where in uh, in for 2 years, there was not a single uh, free and fair election on the process was always very boudreau. we dates and casualties like uh, what, uh the previous uh the into the, the seat and um you more about on top of the, the president. busy was physically, i'm fees to a to go them to where the country, but you do want to back down to retire and, and that was being stressed as very responsive and it a social style of use the, the, we,
4:23 pm
we just have news off the bodies has received very embarrassing scenes or people over the was speech. you know, showcasing the skills is that he's weakness sort of the gallons on africans in general out very where very embarrassed. in the meantime, the country was not going. how many of you, if you see or the criteria economy has the education you name me? every thing is holding a hot and the a the the gone nice. the position was fairly responsive. but what, what about megan to jump in that because i'm quite interested to see what the feeling is and the neighboring time, a room because the you've got a lead to who's 90 years old. so enrolled a similar situation, one might say too long, i wish and imagine people are looking at his health and his longevity. how are it? should he be that he might be next?
4:24 pm
okay, and of course since the, the, the, these, these, the quote if you gave me, as they quoted you was, i forgot people think of, uh, the situation in center actually can many in several countries as well. um and uh you can feel some kind of inside t o b i you definitely, i'm definitely sure that if people think of the o v also encounter them but the situation is quite different. um, because uh seems the, uh, the quote like 101984. um the old security forces not being so divided and organized in a way that is very, very difficult. i don't see is it possible that these bank grades differ? uh just see you can try something but the, the, the, the chances that you get is to bring to that to a name of
4:25 pm
a thing. so um, and also what we see is that uh, speaking, how she enrolled accepted that the current president were spanish as john, maybe with the dye impala on the waiting for what happened next. okay. my name is i just want to get another question because you are normally based in paris and many of these leaders we have seen in countries of where we've seen these cruise have been called pop ups of the french. these all x colonial countries. do you think that is true? is that a fair assessment that they remain puppets of the french that get me? i would get to the government is a country which has in traditionally very close to front and the french printed them out the, in the independence loom by use to say,
4:26 pm
we have our lawyer and he goes to 2 countries to try to get more, you know, so uh, and the, the more transfer definitely has to be considered as a high oh, the fitness concept. sleep system, you know, uh, and the, the, the president boynton, i need them was 5. it was, they would say we spent 6 feet good in, in that system. he was, it was really the school of the system. uh, but now people who has been trying to showcase some kind of kind of open the independence because for instance, he joined the come in was where the even the of the have nots that patient wished english will we? but recently, like how was what was on to do it. and frankly, but they decided to join defendants in the, in joining that organization 1st. okay. kind of thing, but basically, uh, you know,
4:27 pm
flute from companies i see very strong background on that one. see because she was eyes of a school. okay. maria was a below we have to leave at the but thanks so much. taking the time to join us back from cameron. well, the overflow of alley bunker and the rest of his son may spell the end of a family dentist day which has dominated the political landscape in government for more than 50 years. after serving administer real positions, he succeeded his father as present 14 years ago. but his ability to leave capital and have long been on the scrutiny of critics have condemned what they called his antique democratic policies. same as probably takes a look back at his rise and full from power a fully bungle, came to power in 2009. he served as foreign and defense minister during the 40 year rule of his father omar. after he died, good bonds next elected head of state had
4:28 pm
a familiar name, oli, bundle, tried to distance himself from his father's legacy, a squandering good bones vast. but by 2016, he appeared to be following in his father's footsteps, consolidating his grip on power, winning the presidential election by just a few 1000 folks. voting was marked by violence and allegations of fraud. mass protest followed, and demonstrators burned down the parliament building. in the capital, libra fell after his election when bundle promised to address the problems, fueling the anger of his people, including unemployment and poverty. i'm reaching out to them and said, well, let's see, donna, we've been talking for years, but do we need to change the system? we need to change the law, but let's do it now. the instability of 2016 changed the political landscape leading to more discontent. divisions remained for years with some opposition leaders boycotting delayed parliamentary elections in october 2018. and just weeks
4:29 pm
later, there were conflicting reports about the president's health. he fell ill during an investment conference in the south, the capital react, and was admitted to the hospital with what his spokesman said was severe fatigue. other reports said he'd suffered a stroke. crazy though. do you move on to a t? there's a defaulted, a few months later, in january 2019 a handful of junior army officers attempted a short lived crew. they seized control of the national radio station and called for street protests to restore democracy, declaring ali, bundle unfit to rule the other. so the take over was quickly ended with 2 soldiers killed and others arrested foot problems of inequality and poverty persisted under the rule of all the bundle winning the presidency for a 3rd time and controversial circumstances with elections lacking and transparency . they were a step too far for the security forces in the end of the bundle was overthrown by
4:30 pm
his own presidential guard zane bus robbie ultra 0 assault and how to eric after he's the executive director of the african policy for him. and as in luck, some books 50 for us are great to have you with us. this crew in gap on it's been linked of course, to all the codes which have been many in the region, but it's different testing is knows about security in the country. it's about ending the tennessee of the bunker family. yeah, thank you laura. that's very correct. and i couldn't agree more with you on that. on like situations with said and said in a, in my example can not fast so on all the conscious molly, what we see in got born least completely different from the end result at the same way a dictator. she know that to get the sheep or say to the lead off, it'd be nice to use being taken out of power off the 55 years of the bone growth in power of city. the government, as people saw this time around,
4:31 pm
we have had enough of it. and that's exactly what we have seemed to have been brought to an end. is that the people in gap on they might be celebrating, but meanwhile, we've called frogs. we've got the you watching closely worried about the situation . they have any leverage of a gap on what's happening there and the ministry i i don't really seem to have most of the rates in this situation. and that's the right. you said. funds should be extremely worried because if what we saw. busy it was a little to friends. what we're seeing in dublin is a photo blue. hm. it's probably the sites that face seems to be that's fine. no new of being put on the cover the fence of freight because as you will remember, got born over the years. seeing that these are my phone, the that's the, let's find the of the colorado outgoing personality bundle. see, have been the,
4:32 pm
the good way to ask the guy, he was a coupon of the funds of freak, which was a system which made it just quite a for us. um, one encouraging the partisan caught up showing collectivism and everything. and then that was thumbs up. freak and got born was a keep up with a get keep all that system. so take out the both the best crease like matching up to that system which tries. busy enjoying the benefit of from that system for so many years since independence. so 5 has some real concerns here and it's unfortunate, but that seems to be the reality. absolutely nice. people think it's time for them to have the, the destiny guns and what one does, what this means full. the extensive french business interests in this region. a, a c o. the college just with things have a similar interest. the situation they got bought is even worse because for years
4:33 pm
funds have controlled most of what was the in dublin and the amount of interest which they have is it for conquests really it's, it's a no means the only outlet for them will be to see how to negotiate doing this 40 and see with that, they can continue this from the session with government, with a new reducing plays on your tests if they should attempt to use false because we ship on the stand up as we speak. we have $350.00 or even more, maybe differentiated treatment base and double wall. oh, how they react to the current situation or determine funds and they sent you with government. so what wouldn't be good for friends would be to understand that government wants to take the future into the hands and there should be the ones in church and it shouldn't dictate to that. so therefore, she did want to maintain dakota interest, which will not be on the terms that they have a drug of last 65 years. they'll have to work with the current um system of the cartridge and that will be coming in if they meet you pool coding. it is the
4:34 pm
foundation peacefully how people still work with that field wants to make 10 state and government, but it will not be on the terms any longer. it is the end of the sense of the transition. it was an interesting point to talk about isn't it was saying the ministry konita saying that they will meet today to discuss who will be in charge of transition. and all of these other countries where the ministry crews have happened. we have not seen a transition yet. to civilian rule, do you think gap on again will be different? um, that's a very good question. we haven't assume that the for the regions one to highlight the case just like the molly or the good news or the us and the shit. the thinking, you know, how come to say should we highlight that the difference between this 2 quotes in body this year and did the reasoning or the rationale behind a cruise, where security issues in government,
4:35 pm
it is not the situation got boned immediate for you. second of us said the one to, to, to protect the constitution, the one to protect the institutions. and therefore this should, it will be in the interest to make sure that the transition goes ahead as quick as possible. the last, the only due to me is so the security is a big difference from these yet, and the good, the molly and all the others. they don't need to work with the civil society. the also show me, quote, a show that is very useful to see how to simply bring about the transition that the country needs is most issues of security, so that we don't have any reason to hang onto the power back for the shoot. eric, i said, great, thanks you. thanks very much taking the time to join us that from luxembourg city. it's a pleasure to know. thank you the,
4:36 pm
