But 1st sudan has its 1st female foreign minister the new Prime Minister who was sworn in last month says most cabinet members have now been chosen and will head the Foreign Ministry a Sovereign Council will leave the country until elections are held within 3 years lets get some perspective on the. From washington shes a sudanese american journalist and humans rights activist thanks for speaking to us on the news hour so its an 18 member cabinet so far including 4 women and the 1st woman to serve as foreign minister of the countrys history whats the significance of bouts. I mean its incredible women have been at the forefront of this revolution and i have to say we feel very good as sudanese americans we feel good as sidneys across the country given the fact that this woman has been elected us much of the law has been a champion of human rights and i think that thats what she brings to the table in addition to being a champion for human rights she started after she graduated from the university of khartoum in the Foreign Affairs ministry and she decided that she was going to work very hard and fortunately she faced a lot of discrimination under the bashir is jean which led her to go to move to the netherlands and then she moved on to morocco to only come back to sudan to start up her own Translation Institute but she has been a champion of human rights and this really feels like redemption for the women who have been a part of this revolution but not necessarily included in some of the agreements that have been made between the military council the forces for freedom and change and representation at the governmental level but this means it means a lot to those of us who have been fighting in the revolution for human rights and womens rights at that to see a smile at the helm of the Foreign Ministry what about the rest of the cabinet as were saying its 18 members so far how representative is it off sudan and perhaps areas that have been overlooked in the past. I appreciate your question i mean in the past what weve seen is unfairness weve seen discrimination tribal discrimination people who are from some of the tribal groups whether youre in darfur if youre a south sudanese who are living in khartoum we havent necessarily seen that integration and a lot of the disc the discrimination against people who are not affiliated necessarily with the northern sudanese traditions or even religious ethnic city is i have to say that we have work to do when it comes to that in sudan and being you know inclusive when it comes to incorporating some of the people who are from eastern parts of the country and also from southern parts of the country theres been a lot of i think unrest in places like darfur in terms of representation also in port sudan in terms of representation there a lot of people who feel like the government still has a lot to prove in terms of inclusion that there are a lot of egregious a human rights atrocities that were committed against people from darfur and people from suit south sudan you know historically so they feel like as we head towards the future were going to need to see more representation but not only more representation but justice for the people who were murdered through the years in darfur and south sudan and i know i would like this. Dog address that specifically you know i said of that id like to see hands off address that specifically what he plans to do for some of these people who are located in the periphery who need equal representation and also need to feel like they have some type of redemption for the human rights atrocities including the charge of genocide against people and are for any other challenges the u. C. For this governments moving forward at least in the next few months. Absolutely i mean sudan needs to be removed from the state to sponsor terrorism list a charge that was brought from the United States in the 1990 s. Due to us ahmed bin ladins work there you know in sudan and you know i think in addition to that we need to see a removal of economic sanctions i think what have doc has to prove to the International Community is that hes committed to writing some of these wrongs from the past and not only including women in his government i mean that can be perceived as a show but also making sure that he takes a strong stance against human rights atrocities making sure that we look at l. G. B. T. Q. A right in the country and making sure that were inclusive also when it comes to marginalized communities the disabled community you know so he has a lot of work to do in terms of proving that they are about freedom peace and justice the pillars of this democracy all right to leave the home and we thank you for speaking to us from washington.
