The national coordinator of the campaign of Aziz pleaded for the quick formation of the new government in the next 48 hours, adding that "otherwise, we will make other technical arrangements for the holding of the presidential elections of 18 July 2009."
The supporters of Aziz believe the Framework Agreement of Dakar (ACD) for an inclusive return to the constitutional order in Mauritania is clear and does not include any unwritten clauses.
They believe the arrangements do not provide for the dissolution of the High Council of State (HCE), put in place by the junta author of the 6 August 2008 coup.
The overthrown president, Sidi Mohamed Ould Cheikh Abdallahi, wants the dissolution of HCE as a preliminary to its resignation.
Noting the persistence of such a blocking for about 20 days following the signing of the agreement, the follow-up committee for the implementation, composed of the Senegalese mediation, the International Contact Group on Mauritania (GCIM) and the facilitators, initiated an emergency meeting in Dakar, for Saturday evening.
The agreement of Dakar provides for the formation of a Transitional National Union Government (GTUN), an Independent Consensual National Electoral Commission (CENI) and a presidential election on 18 July.
