Update on the Congo

CNN has posted an update on a story they ran last week and I discussed below. Action will be taken to stop the systemic violence perpetrated against the women of the Congo. This is good news of the highest order.

Kabila was quick to acknowledge that more than 300 former soldiers have been convicted and jailed for sexual crimes, but admitted that is not enough.
"We clearly need to do more for our citizens," he said.
"But just imagine for a moment a country as large as all of Western Europe with few roads and little infrastructure. It's a difficult terrain to police and Congo doesn't have an effective policing system. But after the election, all this will change. If elected, I will make this one of my first priorities."
