This is the second gathering of this type in fifteen days. Thousands of Sudanese, supporters of the Islamists, demonstrated on Saturday November 12 before the UN delegation in Khartoum, in order to protest against international “interference” aimed at relaunching democratic transition in their country.
Defenders of the former Islamo-military dictators of Omar al-Bachir, who was fallen in April 2019 under pressure from the street and the army, the Islamists regularly call at the start of the UN of Their country, while the international organization acts as a mediator between military power and civilians in an attempt to carry out a process of democratic transition hitherto prevented in the country.
Their protest has increased since the military putsch of October 25, 2021, which interrupted the transition launched in 2019, and more since the emergence of a scenario as possible from the crisis going through the adoption of a new constitution. The latter, drawn up by the Sudanese bar pro -democracy association, calls for the formation of a civil government.
a process of democratic transition in the dead end
International mediations launched for a year by the UN echoes in particular on this point: the civilized civilians during the putsch affirm that they will only return to the negotiation table if the army agrees to withdraw from power According to a specific calendar and if the managers of the former regime are definitively dismissed and judged.
Equipped with signs such as “no to foreign interference” and “Volker emanates” – in reference to the UN emissary in place in Khartoum, Volker Perthes -, support for Islamists therefore displayed their firm opposition on Saturday to such a scenario.
“We demonstrate against foreign interference in our country, we will not accept the secular constitution of the Sudanese bar”, launched to the France-Presse Ahmed Abderrahmane agency, a demonstrator present on Saturday before the delegation of the ‘UN in Khartoum. “We are going to go out in all the streets, in all places, every day, in all cities, in all streets, to protect this country, preserve its unit and security. No to employees,” added another, Louaï Moustafa.
Faced with the opposition of the camps, the democratic transition is found today in the dead end in Sudan. For the past year, the pro -democracy has said they feared a return to the Old Regime of Mr. Bachir, behind bars since his fall. As proof, the fact that many Islamists have found their post in the mysteries of power.
But the cloth now seems to burn between General Abdel Fattah al-Bourhane, author of the fall of the fall 2021, and the Islamists. General Bourhane called them last week “not approaching the army”, demonstrating the current climbing of tensions.
