So it's worth stressing that this is a developing story as we speak. I'm looking on...Twitter.
因此，值得强调的是，这是一个正在发展的故事。 我看到……推特上。
I'm seeing protesters. What do we know happened?
我看到抗议者。我们了解发生了什么吗?
So we know that the military has arrested high-ranking members of the civilian government,

and the Ministry of Information said that the civilian prime minister, Abdalla Hamdok, is now under house arrest.

But we know that activists have called on people to take to the streets to protest against what they are calling a coup.
但我们了解到，活动人士呼吁人们走上街头，抗议他们所谓的政变。
And they're sending us videos that show thousands of people on the streets of Khartoum.
他们给我们发来的视频显示，成千上万的人在喀土穆街头游行。
They are resorting to the chants that we heard when longtime autocratic leader Omar al-Bashir was toppled in 2019,
他们诉诸于我们在2019年长期独裁领导人奥马尔·巴希尔被推翻时听到的口号，
and they're calling for revolution, calling for the fall of the regime.
他们要求革命，要求政权垮台。
They are seeing that retreat is impossible, that the people are stronger.
他们看到撤退是不可能的，人民变得更强大了。
But the facts on the ground are that the military appears to be making its move to consolidate power

- they - you know, to push the civilian part of this transitional government aside and to return Sudan to a military dictatorship.

we were talking - as recently as a few months ago, we were talking about Sudan's transition to democracy, right?
就在几个月前，我们还在讨论苏丹向民主过渡的问题，对吧?
They finally get rid of this dictator after decades.
经过几十年，他们终于除掉了这个独裁者。
It looks like things are moving forward, and then now this. What happened?
看起来事情进展顺利，但现在又出了这种事。发生了什么事?
Yeah, it looked - so popular protests in 2019, as you noted, led to the ouster of longtime leader Omar al-Bashir.
是的，就像你提到的，2019年民众抗议导致了长期领导人奥马尔·巴希尔的下台。

The military was supposed to turn over power next month, but they're making it clear that they are staying.
军方本应在下个月移交权力，但他们明确表示会保留权力。
And I think if this coup sets in, it could mark the end of one of the most remarkable pro-democracy movements we've seen recently on the African continent.
我认为，如果政变开始，它可能标志着我们最近在非洲大陆看到的最显著的民主运动之一的结束。
