8:07 pm

military violence, washington insists that now is the right time for a transition to civilian rule incident. it's a fragile situation. there are other actors that may be pushing against that, that progress. but this is a real opportunity to finally carry for the civilian la transition. and one that we and other countries are trying to are to bolster i think lincoln is not the 1st us official to weigh in on the situation in sudan back in 2021. following the latest. who in the african country usa department spokesman ned price quote for the restoration of civilian rule in sudan. with that statement defying a transitional period announced by the sudanese government to the time or currently the international community, including russia, the e u, and the arab league. according for an immediate cease fire and sat down while the us pushing for a handover of power. despite the military conflicts with the sconces with over an
8:10 pm
historian gerald horn, now many thanks for joining us on. the program is good to see you. now the fighting incident has been waiting for 3 days now. no cease. fire inside was your assessment of the current situation there. well, it's on a knife said, i'm afraid to say that is to say, scores have been till particularly civilians. the dispute arises from the fact that you have the special forces, the so called r s f, who have been accused of being implicated in human rights violations in the dark, poor region. the region of western sudan that is larger than spain. recall that the international criminal court already has call for the extradition of a former suit needs liter speaking a mr. alpha sheer and there is some fear amongst the rest of that. some of their leaders may wind up in the dock. keep in mind as well that sudan sisters teach at
8:11 pm
least slighted its neighbors include egypt, which is a close ally of the united states and terms of military alliances. it is also a butting libya, which was the subject of the nato and us sponsored bombing in 2011 recall as well that and the central african republic to south of sudan washington has become quite hysterical about the role or the lead role. i should say of the boston or group, which is, you know, has headquarters in russia. united states is not on par or referee secretary of state lincoln with see me to suggest in the remarks you just played. but it's more like a player. recall that it was the state under us president george w bush, the push for the secession of south sudan, which is a wash in petroleum. it successfully seceded, seceded from the water to dead,
8:12 pm
and has been mired in unrest ever since. recall as well that some decades ago, in the aftermath of sudanese independence of the mid 1950. it was the united states that pushed for the isolation, if not the bludgeoning of the sudanese communist party, which was seen as a nickel to washington's cold war ambitions. and was a powerful political force in the wake of the marginalizing of the communist party . like a free thought, you saw the arising of a certain religious zealotry which manifested in the 1990s, particularly when the late or some of been lawton, was said to be residing in the capital cartoon which led then you as president, mister clinton to send please, missiles in sudan supposedly in retaliation, but actually destroying suit needs manufacturing facilities. so this is
8:13 pm
a very dire situation that's unfolding. and i think that washington would be well advised to bow to the influence of the african union, headquartered a neighboring addis ababa, the opiate, the 4 dozen plus numbers of the african union, headquartered in out of her baba rather than interfering and suit sedans, internal affairs, and i'm dressing that washington is calling for charles for civilian while everybody else is just calling for a simple sci fi. is a transition to a c, to civilian will even a possibility now, and those that don't actually have some sort of government in waiting will obviously, washington's diplomats either or not advising the secretary of state properly. or there are some sort of hidden agenda, which is often prevalent and the us state department of perhaps washington is newspaper headlines have suggested is seeking to cut
8:14 pm
a deal with one or another faction within the military. and thereby help to further isolate the sudan prim it's natural allies in the african union, not to mention its friends and international community, including russia and china. really appreciate you speaking to today. thank you so much for your time or for an historian gerald horn. across in nigeria ation, employees have launched their 2nd slide this year in protest as poor working conditions and low pay the countries airports will be closed. 42 days on friday, the unions announced they will work on monday and tuesday due to unpaid risk. the union represents pilots, engineers, control town operators and other key industry workers. the organization has also threatened an indefinite strike if the demands are not met. meanwhile,
8:15 pm
deny jerry employee as consultative association or an e. c a. his will in the countries government against heating the advice of the international monetary fund. that's on the i m. s, suggested nigeria should raise taxes to pay back the country's foreign debt, which is expected to keep rising. any attempt to consider a tax hike with great more burden. some tax pays it may defeat any attempt to widen the tax that taxpayers would consider. tax avoidance measures. there will be massive capital flight, and the drawing for direct foreign investment could be defeated. the i m f also suggested nigeria phase out its pet tool subsidies and redirect the funding to targeted subsidies like health and education. according to the n c c. a. however, the private sector in nigeria is already overwhelmed by most within birth is the director of the graduate school of business at the university of zombie as the i m . s. advice stems from expired economic books without consideration for africa.
8:16 pm
economic struggles the i m. if already has been, is being received, we skipped to them and i forgot africa. we'd say i am if policies on the lead eighty's and the ticket, the main 2 main to where that structure adjustment program. i left you know, a lot of con, to embed. so raising taxes for nigeria is now is basically sending them to the grid because it's as difficult for and my business is and also i included to be able to afford to do business and also afforded living, i mean, to, to save because of the high taxes so the, i miss, you know, dimensions are quite, you know, out of an expire because it's booked book,
8:17 pm
those places member which you know, in african countries because they do not take into that issue and the burden of doing business. i'm trying to construct landlords by households in africa. and while the i m f wants money back from nigeria, the fund is dishing out massive some fee ukraine last month. the i m f agreed, a $15000000000.00 support package for kias. ukraine has thus become the 1st war torn country that the i m f is lending funds to. it would also be one of the largest packages ukraine has received since the conflicts began. they've been the hub both again. so it is unfair for ukraine to be given such large sums while africa remains neglected. them under money that's going to do great. and without any conditions whatsoever, which is 15 us dollar. and when you look at countries, for example, like we said, simulate bit or 15 be done by the way, external did,
8:18 pm
which they declared by monday to before them. i'm going to be given 1300000000. so it was quite unfair for us are going to be to be lumped on a lot of clinicians that have an executive impact on both businesses and all sorts . but other than just getting payments, that's an import driven balance, that balance of payments for those money is intended. so across the continent from africa to moral, there was a huge disgust and discordant about their unfair treatment. that's your grid, hardly seemed compared to countries, for example, exam as the us led invasion of iraq marx's 20th anniversary this spring. we recall one of the most controversial events off of the war that were revealed by wikileaks co founder julian, a sons in april, 2010, a video named collateral murder showed footage of a group including 2 voices,

8:21 pm
a rocky say that is bush and blair that should be behind bars instead of judy and sounds. that sounds very well. assange is innocent, he simply revealed the truth. he should be released from prison. it is blair and bush should be behind bars. yeah, i know very the u. s. move to cover up the truth making excuses to justify the attack. the pentagon issue device adjourned this to identify themselves and inform the military of their whereabouts effectively blaming the royce his crew for their own death. members of the press to be encouraged or required to wear, identifying vests or distinctive body. alma coalition forces to be notified when members of the press are operating in their area of responsibility. washington's efforts to hide the truth about the crimes committed during the iraq war continued today. the u. s. claim to be fighting for freedom and democracy can any, must really be free as long as the sounds remains behind bars with war with based
