Congo – is there hope?

This is from an interesting article in Time

“Remarkable things are happening in eastern Congo. The Congolese army and the CNDP are working together to separate Hutu civilians from Interahamwe commanders, and already hundreds have been freed. According to one expert on the region: “For the first time, Rwandan and Congolese, Tutsi and Hutu are working together to begin the long road of ethnic reconciliation.”

Hard choices remain. Will Nkunda, for example, be extradited from Rwanda? Kabila has promised that Rwandan troops will be out of Congo by March, but every day that they stay — and the thrill of Nkunda’s capture recedes — it becomes more difficult politically for him to sustain his bold initiative. None of this will be easy”.

    There is always hope. I will continue to pray for long overdue peace for the people of Congo. Let’s hope this is the beginning of the end of the conflict.
