Prime Minister Hamdok told Al-Jazeera that the government will be a technocratic government of independent competencies, and will focus on limited issues, foremost of which is the democratic transition. Hamdok told Al-Jazeera that while under house arrest he contacted a wide range of political forces to foster a broad consensus and ensure the transition period would be successful. Hamdok and General Al-Burhan agreed that the prime minister would have complete freedom to choose a government of national competencies and that four political prisoners will be released as part of the agreement. The four will include Omar Al-Daqeer and Yasser ArmanThe two sides agreed that a national election will take place before July of 2023. In October, a military coup ousted the civilian-led government and placed Hamdok under house arrest. The coup led to widespread civil disobedience and protest as well as international pressure to restore the civilian government. Hamdok and the military were reportedly able to agree on a new government. It is hoped that the agreement will help ease the political violence that ensued following the coup and will give the two sides time to come to a power-sharing agreement. Critics of the agreement believe it will largely allow the military to retain control, while also absolving it from the violence it perpetrated in the wake of the coup.
