Summit Embraces Ending Political Violence in Central African Republic The end of the arms embargo on the government of the Central African Republic (CAR) may be one of the keys to resolving the conflict in the country – a conclusion drawn at the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region, which met Friday, Jan. 29, in Luanda. Angolan President João Lourenço presided over the summit, which reiterated the regional support by neighboring countries for President Faustin-Archange Touadé, re-elected on Dec. 27, a vote contested by armed rebel groups. Lourenço, the president of the International Conference of the Great Lakes, pushed for a peaceful transition of power. "We cannot passively watch the unacceptable situation in that country, whose legitimate government is inexplicably and unjustly conditioned by UN Security Council Resolution 2536 of 2020 with regard to its essential function of ensuring the security and

protection of populations," Lourenço said. According to Euronews correspondent in Angola, Neusa Silva, the heads of state at the conference called on all parties involved to resolve their differences peacefully and to express their opposition without violence. The government officials also called on the rebel groups to observe a unilateral ceasefire, retreat from their positions and put an end to the siege of the capital, Bangui as they condemned the violence. The resounding call for justice was echoed throughout the international conference. The presidents of member states of the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region will meet again Feb. 8 to review developments and consider solutions for ending conflicts in the CAR. Meanwhile, to prevent the spread of COVID-19, UN Peacekeeping personnel are required to adhere to government-mandated safety measures and guidelines. WI

The Cuban government is ready for dialogue and discussion with the new United States administration led by President Joe Biden, the Spanish-speaking island's senior envoy in Jamaica has said, the Jamaica Observer reported on January 31. “We are talking about our sovereignty, and our independence, but if the new U.S. administration is ready to talk, we are ready,” stated Cuba's Ambassador to Jamaica Ines Fors Fernandez, in an interview with the Jamaica Observer. “A fluent relationship between Cuba and the United States favors not only Cuba, but also the US. During the Obama Administration we signed more than 20 agreements or memorandum of understanding in several areas including health, agriculture, environment, so it gives you an idea of cooperation. A dialogue with Cuba and the United States is possible, but there should be no interference with Cuban principles,” the ambassador suggested. Cuba and the U.S. have been at odds since the Cuban Revolution led by Fidel Castro and the overthrow of fascist dictator Fulgencio Batista, then-president of Cuba. WI
