16/4/19: CNN – African Union gives Sudan 15 days to establish civilian rule

The African Union has threatened to revoke Sudan’s membership unless the country's military establishes civil rule within 15 days.

 The AU "strongly condemns and totally rejects the seizure of power by the Sudanese military and its plan to lead the transition for two years," its Peace and Security Council said in a statement.

 The AU expressed "deep concern" over the military takeover and its impact, urging the Sudanese military to "refrain from any act or statement that would further complicate the situation in the country and negatively affect regional security and stability."
