Sudan
A panel of leading figures in Sudan discuss questions from the public in a debate chaired by the 成人快手's James Copnall.
After a revolution and the fall of a long-term military dictator, Sudan is officially on the road to democracy and civilian rule. How do you rebuild a country? The US has promised to take Sudan off the state sponsors of terrorism blacklist, and within the country a peace process is bringing regional rebels into the fold. But is the movement to civilian rule fast enough? When will the conditions of women鈥檚 lives start to improve? At what point will becoming a mainstream nation again mean an improvement in the extreme economic hardships felt by so many in Sudan?
