thanks very much for being with us rami so i want to ask you first of all about these reports in the washington post that. family in saudi arabia have been given money and so-called blood money payments what do you make of that well you have to assume that the washington post checked this out carefully and believes it's correct that the money is being paid. what's not clear is what is the purpose of the money if it's supposed to silence the family from making any criticisms of the family hasn't made any real public criticisms as far as we know criticizing the government if that's the purpose than the it's pretty bad news the saudis would probably say that this is the tradition of helping compensate families who have suffered an injustice or a crime of some sort but it certainly looks like hush money to try to keep them quiet if it is the latter it's not going to work if it's the former that this is just the way the so these do things then that's fine but there's still a problem of the killers of the have to be held accountable. and how would you assess saudi arabia's relations not ju

see to get algeria to the next the next step yeah well i think that is the big question exactly as rami a said. the army forced president beautifully his hand and compelled him to leave office the army chief of staff said that article one zero two of the constitution should be applied if that is applied strictly it means that the president of the upper chamber of the bi cameral algerian parliament takes over as interim president if that article is applied strictly the army chief of staff also mentioned two other articles in the constitution and so it's not exactly clear if he insists on a strict application of the constitution or if there's wiggle room. do you see that this is kind of an area where need to keep an eye on the on the army are you concerned that in the next few days or weeks they may overstep in some way well i think absolutely you have to watch the army it is an important if not the most important part of the algerian state and it is what the army did that compelled president beautifully to abandon the idea of an indefinite extension of his fourth presidential term so you
