When will al-Bashir leave office?

The President of Sudan, Omar al-Bashir, has said he will step down after thirty one years in power, when his current mandate ends in 2020. Sceptics point out that he's said so in the past, only to go back on his word later. Omar al-Bashir has been indicted by the International Criminal Court on charges of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. But talking to the 麻豆社, he denied the allegations of abuse perpetrated by the Sudanese forces in Darfur. He said there was no reason for the UN peacekeepers to stay in the troubled region.
