#Sudan: Omar al-#Bashir is now speaking

#Sudan: so far nothing major has been said. #Bashir stresses need to dialogue, acknowledges protests, claims regret for those who were killed etc

#Sudan: #Bashir announces the dissolution of the federal government (for the × time during his rule), and announces a national state of emergency (which is already in place in #Darfur, N & S #Kordofan, #Kassala and #BlueNile)
