justice is bestst sucked at her room according to stones transitional military council. at a press conference in the capital khartoum officials valve that mlb share would n not stand triaial abroad. this email use. as long as we can on the military council are in power. we will not extradite the president. we wilill put him on trial but e will not exercise any medicine. this comes off to the united nations renewed its goals for the ousted leader to stand tria. alicia was the fastest sitting head of state indicted by the international criminal court for his role in the duffell conflic. we do encourage the authorities in sudan to fully cooperate with the international criminal cour- there was a security council resolution -- as far back as two thousand and five calling on the governmement of sudan to fullyy cocooperate with and provide the necessary assistance to the court. i'll be ship faces charges of

war crimes crimes against humaninity andnd genocide andnds removal from power has given rights groups. that they'll finally see him stand trial in the i cc. he certainly invoked time and again -- the legal argument that he was a sitting head of state and as a sitting head of state he was the us immune. from arrest washington however declined to say whether it's supported alpha she is standing trial in the international criminal courts. likes to don the united states is not a state policy to the rome statute the treaty which created the i cc. that means that my the country except was thehe court's jurisdiction. let's bring you more on that see don i'm joined by others on betty's gallo population candace in that sociology. ansett yalale university as well but he thinks a speaking to france twenty four today. at processes into don then very clear about the continuation of

this regime notot being an optin for them and for many. in any case thehe army represens the continuation. i think the problem lies less with the army then with the identity of the new leaders -- which include not only -- you've been -- who was the head of military intelligence -- during the doll for conflict but also figures such as acela bush. who is the head who is the head of the national intelligence and security services which of course you needed the repression against demonstrators -- i think there's also a problem. with -- the process -- the militatary council as declaredd. that eating tends on get handing over power to civilians -- as soon as he can but in effect it's staying in control of the process. and these these actions are really at odds we with their claims i think -- protesters --

will -- sued the nutri council as as extended. an invitation for dialogue tomorrow -- but the u. position parties are adamant -- that they reject these the council amanda interesting ruling national that's you raise an interesting point because it doesn't appear to be a p particular road map or direction which the army at once to go in and as you say you know how do you suddenly off to two years or less. than that hi david to civilian rule how's that going to work. well the position as a clear platform was clear demands that- the current regime could take as a starting point -- z.. the the ththing is saidd to this crerews not -- probablyly plalanned in matchihing adventure wasas a reactive crew in response to a really -- major uptick in mobilization in the past week -- but the first thing that -- the current regime could do a to satisfy demonstrators used -- to to formally hand over power to a

civilian government appointed from. civil society figures and you know a position parties that would be a formal gesture. that the transition will be in the hands of civilians. and as long as he's doesn't happen new position is no interest in legitimizing this current council -- by participating in a dialogue with it. i mean how much of a danger that it would offer no guarantees. yeah sorry i cut you they got good at do you finish. yeah i i mean this data would offer no guarantees interest many participating in the dialogue would -- would legitimize the military council that you position is rejecting. we when we look at the ministry and other school security forces and militia how much of a danger is that because we have the you know hard at reports of maybe not everyone seeing eye to eye on how much of the dangers that unrest within. those functions. well we seeining already. some open divisions witithin the regime -- the head of the ready to put forces which is a militia

a p paramilitary organization me up of musicians from dell for has said that -- pubublicly that he will not participatete in the council he's one of them as major strong and in the region. and my my analysis of this is that he's hedging his bets -- and betting on the feeder of the many free consul -- there is a risk thatt -- you for those the ministry council refuses to hand over power to civilians -- continued unrest could lead -- to some cold some form of crew again another crew from within the regime and which could -- pave the way -- to widespread violence. so that so that's a a real reses within is looking at right now. just a final question for you that you know let's think back full months to to last december when of course these approach as fast got under way because of the hike in food prices. in terms of saddam strugglingg economy you know it is not going to come back to the forefront older we always slipping even farther away from the real essence of what tools these

protest. well the temporality of the of the but the politics right nine sudanese is measured in in -- in hours in days so -- it's you know but clearly the the curren- did the new regime that has emerged from this crew -- i don't think -- can -- had the credibility to restore confidence in the currency which has collapspsed logs me as a result of the inept management of the economy bay by these very region -- so -- in particular international organizations such as the world bank -- clearly said to me -- in in meetings last year -- in khartoum that -- they would not grant debt relief to regimes that to spend 70% of its budget on the tree and security. so i think only. he's a peaceful transition to its -- civilian government -- could pave the way -- to restoring confidence and

ensuring that pretty for for the sudanese government okay in the medium term. occasion that but t. saiaid galo polititicking sauce from berlin thanks for your time this evening [inaudible] thank you. now i don't hear this friday as thousands old processes all riding in the capital for an eighth consecutive week calling for an end to the re writing all of the c country's ruling elili. following the resignation of our abilities with a flick of the head of the opera house of parliament on that could have been solid to kobe this week as interim president for ninety days. this is so hard for it repeatedly called for him to leave algerians will head to the polls to choose a new leader on july fourth. until then -- demonstrations have filed to keep taking to the streets. an eighth consecutive friday of protests tens of thousands of demonstrators converged on the main post office in l. j. as a landmark that has become emblematic of the fledgling pro democracy movements. algerians may have succeeded in

ousting long time president abdelaziz bouteflika but it's not enough. protest is a demanding a complete overhaul of the political system. starting with the resignations of the new interim president i did cut out bin saleh and although ge is ruling elites. we want the whole gang to get out. we don't see them promoting. one best seller to oversee the transition. this nation doesn't belong to that. the appointment of an saleh is a great violation of the will of the algerian people i can't even watch him on tv i feel disguste. he wants to force us to accept him we have set a great people need a great governments i'm not a corrupt. one backed by the powerful algerian army that seller took office on tuesday. he's promised a democratic transition with presidential elections scheduled for the fourth of july.
