The situation in The Democratic Republic of Congo
has had no where to go but down. Thanks to Paul Kagame and Yoweri Museveni, who
believe that looting minerals is more important than saving the lives of the
Congolese. As I mentioned last week, these two presidents, Kagame and
Museveni, have killed or caused to kill millions of people in this nation
that it has now become an issue with the Security council. By this posting, you
will know what has happened in the security council today regarding Congo
and what UN wants Uganda and Rwanda to do. At the bottom of the posting, I am
going to include the statement issued by the President of the 15 member council
Gunter pleuger of Germany, to the press this New York afternoon.
On behalf of the Communication group, I am
appealing to every body to put as much pressure to the presidents of Rwanda
(Paul Kagame) and Uganda (Yoweri Museveni) to understand that we can not live
like this when we are killing, raping, molesting and abusing innocent people.
Let Uganda and Rwanda get out of The Democratic Republic of Congo.

DR Congo: Security Council expresses concern at human
rights violations
In a statement to
the press following consultations on UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan's latest
report on the DRC, the President of the 15-member Council, Ambassador Gunter
Pleuger of Germany, said members also called on the Congolese parties to fully
implement the power-sharing agreement signed in Pretoria last December, and to
establish the transitional government.
According to the President, Council members voiced their concerns at the
abuses reported two weeks ago by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights,
Sergio Vieira de Mello, who said information gathered "reveals that prosecution
on ethnic and tribal grounds, extortion of property, rape and other forms of
sexual violence against women, extra-judicial executions, and the forced
recruitment of children are being committed."
Council members "reiterated that there can be no impunity," Mr. Pleuger said.
They expressed their particular concern at the situation in Ituri, and called on
the Union des Patriotes Congolais (UPC) to cooperate fully with the UN
Organization Mission in the DRC (MONUC).
They also called on all governments in the region, in particular the
Governments of the DRC, Rwanda and Uganda, to support the peace process in
Ituri, urging them "to work to establish confidence-building measures to promote
security in the border areas," Mr. Pleuger said.
Members demanded that full freedom of movement be provided to MONUC so that
it could investigate allegations that Rwandan and other foreign troops were
present in DRC territory, as well as allegations that the Congolese Government
provided support to the armed groups in the east of the country.
They also condemned the attack against MONUC's helicopter in Bunia, the main
town in the Ituri region, "warned those who committed this crime of grave
consequences, and demanded that the perpetrators be identified and brought to
justice immediately," Mr. Pleuger said. =============
