claims to have been going on in the millions was tightly accusing president bramble bark like a tell me some money each man in the country and also poverty and so people are very they are struggling to get food and everything and there's also corruption so it's been. since june now and there's the movement of. 5 more meant that is like the fury in these disciplines ition against the president bramble what arcade so there are lots of problems in mali right now a spokesperson for this movement said tonight that what we're seeing is not a military coup but rather a political insurrection so i don't know what the big difference is there do we know who is exactly behind this coup would set. so we don't know yet who is behind it because really we are all waiting for the official statement of the people who took. mr mr kate but what should be understood true. lag the fact that is a political insurrection is that. is that it seem to be like the end of. read so for 10 years the month of protests against president abraham but i kate and this plus the independence which is the independence prec

and even yesterday they have even planned the protest again this week sure to go against presidency bramble back like a test so it's it's like it's not that surprising that this is happening and this is how you should understand what this person is saying but by saying no case not the coolest is just claimed to have been acknowledged and has friends have we heard anything from france being obviously the former colonial power there in mali has there been any reaction from france. yet has been a reaction from france personally president marcos said that he has talked to. president graham but i can't tell but we don't know yet the when you talk with him about the situation the president my car also said that it's up to the eco us but me and he did they say it was he says that also that he condemned what is happening there should have for sophia's minister foreign affairs 3 yeah so they condemn. raised of the president and president. and the from the services of ok remy valley of africa bringing us up to date with the latest now on this coup attempt in mali remy thank you thank you a u.n. backe

well basically for many molly ends the question is would have would president bramble worker announce that resignation if the military had not stepped in i spoke to an academic a short while ago and he believed that president. will still hold on to power and will not leave despite the demonstrations that have been taking place in money since june so a lot of people in the international community especially believe it was a coup and all the elements of an african coup what they're. charging and taking over government institutions the arrest in the president the prime minister and members of the cabinet shutting one borders and of course the airport as well as imposing some restrictions good night time cough hughson taking over the radio stations while of course they broadcast the message that they are now in charge these are. things that make up for a cool things we have regularly seen during the sixty's the seventy's eighty's and even the ninety's in west africa so basically many people believe that this is a cool and that's the reason why the course is sending a delegation to mali ce

for them and the rest of mali to take and not but of course what was agreed on is to free president bramble worker kit and when the issue of other detainees came up the army said the spokesman of the military said these are kept in custody for their own protection the fear is that when their nipples or when they are freed from detention a lot of people may not be happy about that and probably they will be some unpleasant. unpleasant actions to be taken against them so these they promise to keep in custody into such a term that when it's saved and then they'll be released from custody and then they continue with their own lives now the the other issue the other important issue that was discussed in agreed upon although the of course delegation says it has no power to approve the wars until after a meeting or a summit of west african leaders coming up on wednesday is the issue of easing or lifting of sanctions altogether the military argued that sanctions can only hold her to the ordinary people in mali who are already suffering under tough economic conditions and any additional pressure on t

it looks like it was talks bound to fail after the meeting with president bramble worker kater at the military barracks this morning and the course delegation went back to the ministry of defense to meet with the mali military coup leaders. after a short meeting they took a break and the statement from one of the coup leaders it is that some progress is being made is so after the break that we turn back around. late afternoon to continue their meetings from all indications they have been some sort of convergence of ideas and agreements on what to discuss and what to achieve i think a direction was gotten after the meeting with president abram book into a with some reports suggesting that their cause was. pushing for the idea of him coming back to power and probably maybe the president. spoke his mind and that prompted the 2nd meeting today that's the feeling right now in bamako as the meeting continue will remember the meeting over there of course delegation was supposed to have met the united nations and african union in bamako then suddenly this meeting came that meeting with the un

incidents started in the capital bamako without any statement from either the president of mali himself bramble because or the soldiers who executed the coup and also might give us some context some background if you like we're talking here about a west african country that is fragile and is in chaos in in some areas. absolutely to stop with the cool the barracks where we're going to cater was taken today was actually the origin of another coup in 2012 that was when some military officers launched a mutiny that resulted in a coup that toppled the government of president amounted to money to rape who was accused of failing to deal with the rebellion rebellion in the north of the country and then money administration eventually that coup. as president of miami but over the years what mali has witnessed is what the opposition has called rampant corruption maladministration and failure to secure life and property initially the government was dealing with a secure to situation in northern mali in the quarter held area dealing with al-qaeda then the french and african intervention force went in and t

was a necessity that the army intervene of course the narrative now is that they did not intervene bramble cricket and left and so they wanted to feel out of vacuum so as to stay the course of the country so but what is important for them is that they want as much as they can to show to the rest of the world but they still have been next day that they have been accepted by men by george of money and and of course they want to use it as a bargaining chip for whatever sanctions that may come their way especially now with the west african problem or the economic community of west african states to lock up some sanctions of mali either in. cutting financial flows imposing a london blockade on on mali as well as introducing some sanctions apocrypha of course are there somebody yesterday that exempted food and medication needed medical supplies from those sanctions so they wanted to use this as an evidence to show that money aside in support of what they're saying and that removing book at cape town was necessary to right the wrongs in money from the elections to the security challenges in the n

west african regional bloc of course which has been trying to mediate between the opposition and the bramble because kids are for weeks now and also condemned and called on the soldiers to negotiate a peaceful settlement to this crisis and what it looks like. already in the afternoon it became clear that the soldiers are in control and all the statement from the regional bodies on international community coming a bit late right now we hear the president or the chairman of the african union most of flighty tweeting about he's on dysplasia be it the mutiny or the call in mali saying that it's unconstitutional and that the army should not go ahead and declare a coup so that's the situation now and we're waiting for the statement from the army to announce what they what they want to do indeed i mean just keeping an eye on events unfolding now in mali for the moment. an international tribunal box by the un has finally reached a verdict over an assassination that sent shock waves through the middle east and transformed lebanon's political future salim i ash a member has been on has been found guil

will accept that and also real easy by book of kheta remains to be see him and the question is if bramble because kids are easily east will he still be in mali the tsunami is being played with right now is that probably the course delegation may take it. into exile but that is not what was discussed by the echoes that's not what of course is trying to confirm but that is some of the things that people in mali believe may happen early on of course not malley with a rough tough sanctions and these sanctions of course include the continuous closure of land and. transactions with money as well as financial inflows from member states into the country what we know right now is that the minute. as tried to gain popular support within the iranian nation it's of and already members of the m 5 movement the largest opposition that has been pushing brubaker to to resign from office has endorsed him formally including of course the popular the power broker. who works up to it or met with be called bloaters and also announce that he's withdrawn from politics thank you for that update ahmed idris across

to discuss and what to achieve i think the direction was gotten after the meeting with president bramble because and with some reports suggesting that their cause was. pushing for the idea of him coming back to power and probably maybe the president. spoke his mind that prompted the 2nd meeting today that's the feeling right now in bamako as the meeting continue but remember the course meeting there of course delegation was supposed to have met the united nations and the african union in bamako then suddenly this meeting came that meeting with the united nations and african union had to be pushed back because of the urgency of the situation speaking with the opposition the m 5 r f b i you come to understand that whatever the case is they don't want to brag but we're going to create a back in power so that is the problem number one you know as much as they don't want sanctions and other punitive measures against mali they say they're not going to compromise that they fought for bamboo computer to leave for months now it's time for him to go so that i knew a beginning for mali will start o

release of a brand new book or kitten the rest of the detainees and i think probably they may take bramble could get out of mali and then secondly i sure and some of the military rulers knew military rulers about how to organize elections in a very very short time acceptable to both sides most especially their cause it could have a community of west african states the loser of the 2 alternatives be before them now thank you very much i made interest with the latest say on the situation in mali the protests have broken out in the u.s. state of louisiana after police shot and killed a black man on friday but he say trey fought pellerin was carrying a knife and had been trying to enter a convenience store in the city of lafayette idio appears to show pallor in walking away from officers who then shot the 31 year old after a stun gun failed to work norbert manley has a story. i'm not here to get everybody motivated to come out and do stuff on the streets of fiat you know the killing of the black by us. on sunday more than 150 people block traffic on the infantrymen highway. the site of where h
