a list of demands to the military rulers among them civilian control now. outside the military headquarters in khartoum protesters are making their voices heard they're fed up with decades of autocratic rule and they've been calling for democracy for almost four months. only except a real change satisfying the revolutionary people who are looking for a good future. with. the sudanese people reject the military chiefs who ended the thirty year regime of the veteran president omar al bashir but the army is still very much in charge but your successor even if is a general link to the genocide in darfur and he lasted just one day on the job before announcing his resignation many are unhappy that he was replaced by another army commander though abdel fatah is not wanted for war crimes. mediately sought to
appease the crowds of the streets he announced the end of a curfew imposed by his predecessor and promised that a civilian government would be formed within two years. but the demonstrators want a clean break from the old regime who will never leave this place we will shout it out together. to our freedom liberty our. justice well this is the least we hope. for justice we all sitting for free the wizarding for another government representing by by by out by our own. people having straight or say the first step towards a new beginning is to replace the military transition council with the civilian government. joining me in the studio now to talk about this. thanks for joining us not a now protest as a insisting on more rapid change and in particular on the civilian government why
because they know that there is a very short and very brief window for real. change of pace think if they now hand over the power to a military council then this military council of good really seize power and stay in power for the next maybe thirty years that like what's happened in sudan back thirty years ago when one of the hugh himself led a military coup and then appointed himself president so they don't want this scenario to repeat itself they also think we don't want to see what's happened in egypt in the north the north the neighbor egypt to repeat itself in sudan were a military council and the military descends. he took over power and then stayed in power and now he's the president of egypt they don't want this. to repeat itself and yet the new interim leader yesterday promised to quote up root the old regime. of president bashir so how credible is the promise that he made
yesterday. people are very suspicious they say ok this. he wasn't from the inner circle of the former president omar bashir but there is no coincidence between them to treat the broadest movement now there's still no coincidence they are negotiating there is a delegation who will continue negotiating with the military council today but what they basically want is a kind of a goodwill gesture to see ok this military council is not going to reign forever it will hand over the power to a civilian bed turns of government and they don't want to military council. to going to lead this transition they want a presidential council with they move tree as a side from several sides and not leading this to this council so there is
a lack of trust yet the talks between the. test as in the military council continuing who would you say has the upper hand right now. i would say if the brought to continue in the magnitude and the strength that we have been seeing in the last. week in seven days then the protest movement has the upper hand they will say in the streets they will continue their sit in front of the mother three headquarters in kabul and also in other countries we also have to. remember that there are many other parts of sudan the arctic part in this. uprising so i think there is a kind of a. movement and the protesters. step up the pressure.
and they have i think the upper hand now. peoples now. thank you so much. take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world today new protests have been held in serbia against the government of president alexander which thousands have been taking to the streets every weekend for months the demonstrators accuse the church of becoming increasingly autocratic intimidating the opposition and trying to silence the media. palestinian president mahmoud abbas has sworn in a new government led by a longtime ally from his dominant party the government excludes all representatives from hamas movement that runs gaza hamas has called the move a blow to unity efforts between the two groups which have been at all of this for more than a decade. sixty two migrants who have been stranded at sea for more than ten days
