postponement? that's been proposed by the military government. so initial reaction from alco asked him from the ac was mediator who is looking at the situation dies for my, my dear, i'm president. good. like you and i fun. and who has said that this time to will propose, out from their military and leaders, was not acceptable. and that is a reaction for milk was the immediate reaction from local us through the across media type. this time table is not acceptable, but he's again, going to put this forward in a report for the leaders who are meeting today again are cra for them to now decide what to do next. in terms of given as definite action in terms of what we're doing, reaction to what a lead, as adam literally destined molly, i see. so that as a reaction, immediate reaction we are picking from alcohol as we speak. and isaac, what the honda is saying is that it needs more time to bring in reforms before

there can be that transition to civilian rule. how credible is that being seen beneath those risen they've given. the manipulators i've given is also the issue of insecurity in molly. and of course, that is confirmed by even recent withdrawal of french troops from that some parts of the northern that center origin in molly at which gives miley not a headache and trying to deal with the at the militant activities that are taking place in part of the country, so the as this is a legitimate consent that you kind of have an election that in place next month, february, where most people in molly cannot participate, especially those in the northern, in a central part of molly cannot participate. so this is a good reason, but i think that for the echo, as late as that timeline is something that they are not happy about 5 years. it's not something we really want to accept at this moment. it definitely seems like there's a back and forth going on there. and one of that is that echo us already has sanctions

on molly's hunter. what leverage does the group really have over the country and his current leadership? for a very complicated and alia, and a few months ago, the poor functions on them literally does themselves through with some press on them to, to abide by the time table to transition our time table. and currently, as is big, the only other lever to have is to impose financial and trade sanctions on molly to see how was it by the whole country. this disease can then react and then the lead has gone. also begin to think along the line of equity, or i just made thing. we have their west african economic and monetary union also meeting big if cigna that there could be some decisions in the area of financial or trade functions on molly, who to add to keep them in line. but it's still a complicated issue and is not, does a clay,
