Is Sudan’s military prepared to give up power?
More protests in Khartoum calling for dialogue on Sudan’s political transition.
It has been nearly two months since Sudan‘s military deposed the long-time leader Omar al-Bashir.
Talks on the country’s political future have stalled and people are venting their frustration.
Opposition groups want the military to hand over power to a civilian leader, and they are defying warnings to end a sit-in outside the army’s headquarters in Khartoum.
Meanwhile, supporters of the military council held a rival demonstration in the city, saying only the army can bring peace.
The United Nations is urging both sides to resume negotiations.
So, can they come together to find a solution?
