SUDAN
Timeline of Omar al-Bashir’s leadership
April 11, 2019 -
Nach 30 Jahren an der Macht wird Sudans Präsident Omar al-Bashir
verhaftet und vom Militär abgesetzt. Begonnen hat es vor vier Monaten
mit Protesten der Bevölkerung gegen seine Regierung.
The army has also taken over the country for the next two years and imposed a three-month state of emergency, plunging the nation into new uncertainty.
Bashir’s time in power will likely be remembered as among the most oppressive in Sudan’s modern history. For the last decade, he has been under a cloud of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant for crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide in the region of Darfur.
