Joining me now in studio de ws not are also not i mean things are changing so fast on the ground we heard the latest news of dons Interim Leader announcing the formation of a limited civilian government within two years what do you make of that recent announcement and its interesting because he kind of made some concessions towards the protests movement to the opposition leaders. In contradiction to his predecessor who stepped down yesterday so its not really known whats going to happen next because basically he said its going to take two years thats was his for it is for disaster said yesterday so im not sure if the process will be happy with that that its taking two years for them to have a transitional civilian government so well have to see how things develop in the next few weeks weve seen of course a few other victories for these protesters the Defense Minister abruptly stepping
down that curfew has now been lifted. To get those protesters off the streets or do you expect them to keep protesting. Yeah this is actually part of what they were demanding the actually what i hear from from all the people ive talked to. Would be given a news people actually the important thing is to have a civilian government as soon as possible now the. Leaders of the protest. Movement theyve met today with the Military Council and it seems that theyre making some progress theyre coming forward and theyre trying to reach a deal what is very important for the protesters and their leaders is to have the civilian government and not to have to be under Military Rule and the next. Few years maybe few months we heard that announcement of the military perhaps handing over some power to civilians how much trust is there though right now between the
civilians in the military this is the problem trust is a very. Rare thing here because people they dont want this egyptian like scenario to repeat itself in sudan they saw that the military in egypt took over power and they ousted the democratically elected president and then they just stayed in power and now they have a kind of a massive crackdown on all kind of up.

The chinese artist ai wei wei as unveiled a new exhibition in mexico city this week it is titled reestablishing memories of
one million lego bricks show the portraits of the forty three mexican students who disappeared twenty fourteen a case and conflicting information from mexican authorities about their potential murder sparked months of protests and it became a rallying cry against widespread violence in mexico by way says every crime committed damages Human Society as a whole. For more im joined by de ws nicole reese youve been taking a closer look at that exhibition now nikolai way of course known for his controversial art pieces why is he now focusing on the disappearance of these students well this obviously is not just an exhibition about i dont know different take on pixel art this is pretty much his very unique way of showing that he demands justice for those who have to sit i mean if we look at these portraits these are the same faces that we saw on the post after this whole case happened of parents who printed these faces of their sons on the premises and they took to the streets they asked about the truth they ask what happened to my children so its
a very personal thing as well having these pictures shown them that we see on the wall as well and he has also met with some of the Family Members and that pretty much emotionally overwhelmed him himself as a son at the Press Conference he said well he could not imagine losing his son like that and not knowing his whereabouts and thats also Something Else he said lets take a listen forget about the markers are among human beings and select few for you heres someone you heart you neighbor is.
