4:02 pm
control of the country. ah, under the weekend of protest used to dawn, the quickly descended into violence. at least 2 people were killed by security forces. after thousands of pro democracy demonstrators took to the streets, dozens have died in mid unrest since prime minister abdullah ham dock signed to power shame deal with the military following accruing october. but he now admits that hasn't worked out at new thinking is needed. oh, in harlequin, wasn't i decided to give back the responsibility and announced my resignation as prime minister locum to give a chance to another man, a woman of this noble country and was at all to continue leading ugly inaction. but
4:03 pm
at the will and help he passed through what's left of the transitional period to a civilian democratic country. while aboard me colon my the buck graham and i'm willing to go now with donald mckinney in to more of the among the military and civilian leaders have been sharing power since it also cracked. omar bashir was ousted in 2090 after 30 years and charge elections are currently planned for july. births with hum, dock gone, and sudan roiled by unrest. the road to democracy looks increa cindy, fragile. let's take a closer look at this with collude hire, who is managing director of inside strategy partners as a think tank, founded to support state building and transition in pseudo a welcome to d w. and what is your understanding of why abdullah hum doc resigned?
4:04 pm
well, quite literally ethan and see through any of the plans that he had to bring about any sort of continuation of the transition. and that's because the transition is effectively dead as of the october 25th qu. but beyond that, the 21st of november agreement, which effectively codified the coo, ended up constricting the prime minister, our executive space. so in fact, in reality, he found that he couldn't do much of anything. he couldn't appoint a new cabinet. it couldn't undo appointments, made since the coo, he couldn't, you know, choose his own staff or am or gather the kind of political parties and political support around him that he could. and that's because most people that go boss is included, read the agreement that he signed with the general, but han as nothing more than a continuation of the true. and so were low to be a part of it. right? so he went in or if i can put it this way with his eyes open. so why is he now giving, giving a given that was he naive?
4:05 pm
well, he had said that he had signed the cook, that the agreement on the 21st as a means to stop the bloodshed which had happened. and since the cruise started and, and also because he didn't, he wanted to make sure that the gains of the past 2 years, you is referring particularly to the economic games were not squandered. now both of those things have happened. we've seen an increase or ad continuation of people being killed. i've seen repression tactics used by the regime continue and the international from all of the investments and 8, and that was from it. so those, both of 2 reasons ended up sort of being without foundation and he found also that he couldn't make any headway with the military. i think that's an important factor that often gets missed. you know, ham dog made a lot of mistakes, but really the key factor here isn't that not being able to do anything that he wasn't able to do anything because the military made it short made sure that was the case, right? so where does that leave these mass protest riches we saw in the, in the report have been met with violent at the armed military responses. now the
4:06 pm
military is in so control of the country. how to things change if at all well, there's increase pressure in the military now because they cannot, ah, they do not no longer have this fig leaf of a civilian facade, um and with, you know, behind which to hide. and they also aren't able to say that there are other sort of governmental structures that are to blame or to be held accountable. they are now to be held solely accountable for any violence that gets me to that, against protest and protest as have vowed. 2 things, one, they maintain peaceful protests and to they will maintain to hold these protest despite the rise in suppression and oppression tactics from the regime very much similar to the ones we saw under bashir. right? so the protest continue, the military stay in power. so what, given that sudan is such a poor country, what does the military want?
4:07 pm
is it now to just stay in power? so we cannot be held accountable for its previous actions, or is there a longer term strategy? well it, it's worth saying the sedan is not a poor country, it's just consistently been poorly managed. and that's why you see these levels of poverty, et cetera. i mean, the military is going to have to contend with that. i do think there is some sort of naivete about the realities of governing and actually that they've bitten off more than more than they can chew. what i would like to see now was at their local allies in the region, particularly saudi egypt, the united arab emirates, israel, and further afield. the united states really sort of put pressure on them to realize that they're making wrong calculations right now. and continuing to double down and repress, particularly because the protest haven't shown any signs of abating and they've not shown that they are going to sort of cow tower to any of these repression tactics. what the minute you need to do now is get some good advice about how to move
4:08 pm
forward seating some of the control that they have in order to stop, the continued destabilization that's not happening and cartoon and other major cities because it protests, it's also happening and our fall as central politics in khartoum in the rising tensions there was very clear. thank you so much for sharing your are your i'm not as with us colon kaya from inside strategy partners. thank you. i will take a look at civil stores making news around the world now will south in south africa, we're an investigation usa underway to a father badly damaged the polar buildings in cape town of thought to say awesome. and negligence are being considered as possible, causes cost to rebuild the historic structure, estimated to run through several $100000000.00 euros brazilian procedure. both scenarios been taken to hospital for treatment of a suspected intestinal obstruction domain medical bulletin. so 66 year old is doing well. he was hospitalized the last july with similar problems, resulting from a 2018 knife attack, which left him with stomach wound and

a police raid on pro to mac, the outlet stand news last week, when several journalists were arrested under colonial era sedition law. to many western observers, citizen uses closure is just the latest sign of hong kong, increasingly on free media environment and of how rapidly beijing has worked to a road to cities, special status and freedoms. who his date of correspondent phoebe cong omar. this latest closure of an independent media outlet means for press. freedom in the territory. oh, citizen music sapling in just a 2017. it was an independent news outlet, mainly i financed by us attractions fees up to be that it was independently around light without pressure from the business people or political pressure. so citizens, they and also stan news which was shut down earlier last week on both of them have
4:12 pm
gained huge popularity in hong kong, even though they're just a very young media outlets in hong kong with just a few years history. but they are really popular. have a loss, read a base of millions of business and hawkeye, especially. those are pro democracy supported. so this is indeed a really huge blow to dive. generalist industry, that to independent media outlets have to close themselves out like so often prayer under the pressure of the authorities and the new legislation and hey, have to adjust when a new normal and hong kong that most of the influential independent media outlets have shut down with only a feel remaining outlet still running. so this is a really affect the future home. i also the feature of how jealous can work on the ground. see, because that india, which is preparing for
