KHARTOUM: Ethiopia's prime minister on Friday called for a"quick" democratic transition in Sudan as he met the country's ruling generals and protest leaders, days after a deadly crackdown killed dozens of demonstrators in the capital.
Protest leaders welcomed Abiy's mediation but insisted that any fresh talks with the generals could happen only if certain conditions were met."The Transitional Military Council has to admit the crime it committed," Omar al-Digeir, a prominent leader from the protest movement, the Alliance for Freedom and Change, told reporters.
Others have been seen out on patrol in their trademark pickup trucks mounted with heavy machine guns or rocket launchers. RSF commander Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, who is deputy head of the ruling military council, has warned he will not"allow chaos" and has vowed to tear down all barricades. Despite several initial breakthroughs, the talks hit a deadlock over the demonstrators' demand - backed by Western and most African governments - for it to have a civilian majority and a civilian leader.
