Apr 25, 2012 Congo (Kinshasa): Call for Real Security Reform
An impressive array of Congolese and international civil
society organizations have issued a new call for real
security sector reform in the Democratic Republic of the
Congo, to be impelled by more coordinated pressures from
African and other international partners as well as
Congolese civil society.
Mar 29, 2012 Congo (Kinshasa): Democracy Still Deferred
African and world leaders have celebrated the democratic
election in Senegal this month, and moved quickly to condemn
the coup in Mali, urging a return to democratic rule. In the
Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), however, there is
hardly any international attention to the post-election
crisis following last November's election. This despite
the prominent role of the United Nations and "donor"
countries in sustaining the government of this strategically
located country, the largest by area in sub-Saharan Africa.
Dec 21, 2011 Congo (Kinshasa): Dubious Mandate, Uncertain Future
Joseph Kabila was inaugurated for his second term as
president of the Democratic Republic of the Congo on
December 20, with representation from Western countries
limited to ambassadorial level. African countries, including
Congo's neighbors, were represented at prime minister or
foreign minister level, with Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe the
only foreign head of state in attendance. But despite
unresolved doubts about massive fraud in the election, the
"international community" (both African and non-African) is
unlikely to mobilize any significant pressure to reexamine
the results.
