How i came out of that. What if you. End up with i mean im also defined there are. Network in mali and last but not least muhammad tell us about yourself. I dont know. You know and. Theres a day. I. Understand. And one who will. So 3 weeks ago molly a coup and echo us the Economic Community of West African States responded by sensually having a sanctions slapping sanctions on the country and closing down their borders to the country and also stopping the flow of money there in addition you have the fact that there are 45000 refugees in mali those are people coming from outside the country to mali and internally you have internationally displaced people 250000 people you have 15000 u. N. Peacekeeping troops and from france 5000 soldiers that is the context of this coup which has drawn up a riding of opinions from people in mali adolescent. Valuable are afraid of the military power they just have to clean up the country and sweep away or got out an image from which they must not take power and refuse to give it to civilian were civil rule has lasted too long in this country its necessary to turn to the military over there now to see what will happen because for them there is no mercy and no nonsense. Mohamed im going to start with you how has it felt out there do people feel im easy are people happy as a result of what has happened. Oh lord i think that these 2 wings people are on have equal or slower do a former president. Some people say that you sound foreign but its. In the hours of no well i. Dont want to go. On when you look cant do the cleaning for all is an issue of ibrahim work and it just so abuses a result is. Of a Long Distance unknown cant you know and why its the way and how its what is your mission dissensions and it cant be unmanly because the neatly west of it on and we can do a lot of for our viewers some sunshine. Is not good for my knee and people are now. All of mine. Sung on the road and does not want to lean on him and give one just. Drops in maui are also friends orson. In 2000 son who was all. Against johnnys are dreaming mind your soul so all deeds doors didnt really hard like you but its now you mom. I want to turn to some of the responses that weve gotten on twitter to our questions over the last 24 hours for example here we have mocked her kanye or her cane saying the coup brought about a change of leadership but not a change of habits heres another opinion from baba today rajiv most important is for the citizens to observe peaceful understanding within their selves having their representatives fully on the ground at the negotiating tables with soldiers and the ecowas negotiate a peaceful transition by mid next year while international aids come aboard theres a 3rd opinion should be at the forefront of all International Community engagement for the situation to ensure that decisions made reflect the reality on the ground and the aspirations of the people of mali of course well talk a little bit more about echo us but it seems to be a divided opinion on the ground in terms. Of people who support echo oss engagement and involvement and people who feel like that is an outside organization imposing in timelines and opinions on the people of mali but i want to talk a little bit about the drivers of the protest fight in a could you talk a little bit about why people have been taking to the streets over this past summer. The people were very unpopular was the way to the end he ended the they did the elections in march though because theres a partial a way of handling that issue so that i could have who you people to be on the streets and now being on the march and soon im going to have to live on the beach and somebody runs the basement 1st they want to do is the president who signed our butts in the president of the way but when it was it was the mom in my vehicle was able to negotiate with the president and the inside movement so finally the came out together they were like open all of the methods little zion not one of the was one of the much smaller ones of the scope of this mission off and also we one who said you need equipment and what you never need they did not accredited. Something with that love. Them and they couldnt find the common argument so they keep. Keep keep the one this week and then they made it so they. Nearly im curious did you predict what would happen 3 weeks ago. Its very difficult to predict that the only thing i can say is that theyre aware of the rumors about the news that the need to recruit intervening and you know so on what was the situation which while it really brought the question in fact was to the mission or intruding because what is very important is that we need to re is not a very unified body in the middle east if its important to you he wrote were different. Streams are eating in a cloud of the earth. And that some of the earth streams that are linked to the only thing. We need including 2 former. Parking you have a very different streams and there where indeed and so much rumor seems that. The could happen and in fact thats what has to lead and. Theres a the problem is now the. People within the gentiles are in fact in directing people. Only people in but also with the political issue. Yeah and this is just coming in through you tube in terms of talking about the military jen fall has a question can the military be trusted fatima. I dont mean the problem i mean we think that had for the. Faster than we thought wed not have the meet me right now the need for everyone in power there had been why and. So many thought would be back in the money there i want more people than any. Farmer or i not have the power and i think im going to meet about. All they need to do on one of the how can we help them anything right now who better. From. What we did i know theres a lot again i dont need anything who actually got it i think somehow the cabinet and the like how the family who i think i think. The i dont. Need. You know mohamed earlier you were talking about the presence of u. N. Peacekeepers as one of the variables one of the issues that the country has to deal with with this new leadership we have a video comment from william nami close on this have a listen to what he thinks are the challenges of the u. N. Peacekeeping troops and this new Transitional GovernmentUnited Nations peacekeeping is incredibly important to the stability of mali the military cant fight the armed groups in mali on its own fire this crew has created a real dilemma for the u. S. Because it had for years owing to itself with the key to government the popularity of the coup tells us that the money and people themselves were dissatisfied with her and by extension the United Nations if the human loses the support of the mauling of people it effectively loses a conflict in mali. And i said there was a Transitional Government but that is certainly the whole we dont quite know how this is going to play out mohamed im curious about your thoughts on that coming do you agree with what what he said. But i dont think thats what he said he. Wants. Very in what sense i want to jump on towards their presence for the u. N. Is very important for a minute not only for a peacekeeping force or for a builder who might who i. Spoke to and no e. U. Has done and says that its a little Un Peacekeeping presence you know mali but its the from what you have to hear. The fighting is what i am on last fall the early on how the proper noun signals who brought issues where only india are now it is also innocent serbs or its more and more but its. Not all thats sure you can use. A lot of war and the need to wonder what can our. Disgraces isnt good looking for will not do a bit of usually. Just you being in my house and. They want to go for a few to do a little project so my kids and it all is an ability in my links or their presence is an ordinance is what and or mine but they needed to do to work. And cant be concrete solutions. Yagami do you agree with what mohamed said. I didnt think green is not important to going to there is a new and resent being younger because it meets every aspect of it and it is indeed the role of for the Human Rights Commission not. Because its not been the commenting along till im using both from the army but also probably the Security Forces my m p 3 4th its their own it was absolutely crucial. Also important to say that i mean it cannot do anything and it not only when you are wrong a lot of other International Actors or president s and also the french or seen the of parish and the governor and also of the just like i is what wars which are there as well and in fact they all ask for the mandate but it was one has to recognize is that despite all the earth is it not enough to consider letting their region one tional strength glad that our fate was imagine one comes back and were early in the shining and come 6. And while weve been talking we have a nother comment through you to not court it says can the International Community clairol in this crisis on moderating which weve been just talking about and this person goes on to say i mean if its the military control all over can it be influenced in any way if the other nations are trying to interfere so you definitely have 2 views some people seeing International Involvement as a way to help assist the country to go through a transition and to hopefully get elections soon and of course theres an argument about how soon elections should be held within one year seems to be what france an echo us wants but there are people on the ground asking for more time including the military leaders in question that are running things the other thing the other comment we have is Walter Siebert saying the rebel groups are so powerful because they receive support from powerful leaders there is a lot going on in terms of challenges i want to quickly go into the domestic challenges of Food SecurityEconomic Security mama can you talk a little bit about how people are feeling about the state of the economy in in mali. Money. Is suffering or in yours they want you for the title is. Not money it can and will who are suffering but since those people are. More and more warts and more so just who council to to to to make this additional war stadion because as you mentioned as you measure it now my opinion cant be serious money from abroad and decision is becoming completely. Deerings dean is no money transfer. Is meant decision of use and milan are calling now to call was there when it came to going to war 2 to who to him to consider. For money and didnt work because of my many millions in. My me. My own need to. This problem has. Just brought. Me suffering so it wasnt just me now its clearly to those sanctions our economy and morals from our one day one. And so thats the immediate thing to deal with in the future but of course the long term future is the question of elections whos going to actually run the country have another Community Comment gaby take a listen to what he says. I do believe that these 4 lieschen should be used that opportunity of course not to fix of a problem that the country have that f. Ing that needs to be an opportunity for mallya to discuss the kind of political reforms that have to opt in and i think that the mistake that you usually committed by a lot of people including and to National Actors is to push too quick elections in condition that do not i fully make this election very meaningful for the population millions want to have a real discussion a vote as addition to its decision about where our earlier discussion about ways to restore security because 3 and asking that of a try this be to last at least one maybe 2 years to be able to take of each issue of them not just focus on elections. But tomorrow im curious because youve been a participant of the weekend meetings that have just kicked off between the military leaders and with the opposition and there was some controversy in terms of getting the opposition represented in all the working groups that will discuss the future of the country do you agree the west what was just said. In terms of on taking more time before there is going to be another election. Oh yes i mean i kind of agree with him at some way because i thought i think that the whats important thing is not not about who climbed in our or who should be in transition my goal is that i think it was important to be deposed sane of what the time which i was kind of ketchums who wed been discussing and thats why i think that what important that they were by the magical cessation to suck it was like what should be in the 10 most references why should be they discovered in the National Competition what are they do you have a problem with the money and the what of the problem of money and if you can go in simple clean stable for what i like the challenges that the country is facing so that we can i wait on others who again because i dont think were trying to rush enough of the transition we my and im going to do the century because in 2012 there was a coup this happened and now again theres a metaphor thats what they got me that they possibly love its not so its not a question its all along with some chance to be that what you know issues in my life and how can we overcome that though so thats why i think that the National Organization on the democrats as it was that is that important and i need and would simply say days times differ the better the set of references and then try to make all that they come to include that read all of the money and voices are heard youre going to do you agree with that and do you have confidence that the military and the opposition and all the stakeholders will reach some kind of agreement to move forward. I think that clearly. You need surgery are not the only girl there and they difficult. To negotiate with all their 2. Countries it was assumed that the last 10 years where you funded nonplastic should anyone who long and or might there are many who would say the needs that have been lost or learn from them. And tried every student particularly in we dont want the regulations to be thought of by the need to read because not all people are exuberant you dont like the need to read intervening to support. For that and not the 1st thing so but i didnt think as my colleague that the real were committed to be done of who was the common tick for their future in this country it will not be enough to organize an election because today it is not so new president because always got it wrong if you dont equal in each little more globally and as you can see with the success also theres ronnie if that shows a human ego is there older or is new this intrigue havent really seen it and to date you are not on the component chart to be included in this that tradition so no need to hurry up there is a need to worry for the very areas can you on what is the way for want and what kind of project from the security people in the you from the political point of view in terms of their look im conservative. Needing d to ask. And i want to share another comment on you tube nuts and thats a saying the situation in mali needs Regional Solutions ecowas did it in sierra leone liberia and recently thats definitely one point of view and i would be remiss if i didnt share a comment from. The Opposition Leader and in monte had a warrant for those in charge right now for the military take a lesson. That i ask you to remain vigilant remain vigilant i would like to say this and it is a clear and firm message that no one no one i mean no one will be given a blank check. We let the 5 people died a military came to finish it dont let them make the same mistake as the previous one. Were getting to the near near to the end of our show some go to ask each of you to very briefly in one sentence a give us your predictions for whats going to happen you can be short term or long term lets start with fatima. Oh i think what you want i think i would hope for a. Conference on the but ignition of the francis. Will that thing that the military they have to have an. Inclusive bar on the problem is im hoping that the International Community will be able to national what the National People also want theyve got a. Very small. And was it. Again smooth transition mohamed a very short one sentence what is your projection. And youre hopeful because money and war are a strong what we need to change thats old news but change for james who can we need time and be done because we are under pressure. In the coming days im sure you will come out news once shotgun and. Change and helms the shark got it and youre not going to help needle a very quickly one sentence 1000 and probably not make predictions but a really important that the nation the heart of the transition because our goals who are super cool and security craig you got it they had a lot of that at the center if pete put it like the center dantes tell like me haggling that im lucky im a pretty i need help thank you for watching you lets take a.
