African union envoy to Sudan Mohamed al-Hacen Lebatt (L) sits next to Sudan's deputy chief of the ruling military council General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo as he shakes hands with General Yaser al-Atta (R) in the presence of Ethiopian envoy Mahmud Dirir (C) and senior leader of Sudan's communist party Siddig Yousef (2nd-R) following a press conference in Khartoum in which they announced ruling generals and protest leaders have reached an agreement on the disputed issue of a new governing body on July 5, 2019. - The landmark agreement came after two days of talks following the collapse of the previous round of negotiations in May over who should lead the new ruling body -- a civilian or soldier. "The two sides agreed on establishing a sovereign council with a rotating military and civilian (presidency) for a period of three years or little more," African Union mediator Mohamed El Hacen Lebatt told reporters.
