"We as a military council, we will not deliver the President abroad during our period" in office, Mr Abdin said when asked about the ICC arrest warrant. Protest leaders dismissed the transitional military council formed by top brass after they toppled Mr Bashir on Thursday, as the "same old faces" from the old regime which had ruled the country with an iron fist for three decades. Washington called on the military council "to exercise restraint and to allow space for civilian participation within the government". We will continue doing it until we have a civilian transitional government." The opposition Sudanese Congress Party called for the establishment of a joint military and civilian council to rule for a four-year transitional period.
