BAMAKO, Mali (AP) ? Mali's president has named a longtime public servant as the country's new prime minister, hours after the position's former occupant was arrested and forced to resign by the soldiers behind a spring coup.
The presidential decree read on state television said Django Sissoko, the republic's ombudsman and a former administrator of the presidential palace, is the new premier.
