Protests in Sudan pressure the ruling military council into promising appointment of a civilian prime minister and Cabinet, but not a president to help govern the country
People gather at the protest sight near the military headquarters in the capital Khartoum on April 14, 2019.
The statement came after a second day of meetings between the army and organisers of the months of escalating street protests that led to al Bashir's ouster. "We demanded restructuring the current security apparatus," el Digair said. "We do not need a security apparatus that detains people and shuts off newspapers."
Saudi Arabia said it "stands by the Sudanese people" and called on all Sudanese "to give priority to the national interest" of their country. The UAE urged Sudanese "to work for protecting legitimacy and ensuring a peaceful transfer of power." In remarks broadcast on state TV, Burhan said Saturday that the council has invited "all spectrums of Sudanese people for dialogue." He also said he was lifting the nighttime curfew imposed Thursday, which was supposed to have lasted a month, and he declared the immediate release of all those detained and tried during the wave of unrest that began in December.
