tommorrow morning at 90 hours the commanding general of AFRICOM will brief the senate armed services committee as part of the fy15 budget process.here are some issues that need to be addressed:
the s sudan crisis:
just yesterday chris smith(r-nj) who is chariman of the house foreign affairs subcommittee on Africa global health,human rights and international organizations urged pres. o'bama to call s Sudanese presidentsalem kin in an effort to restart the peace talks which are currently at an impasse.there is also a dear colleague letter moving through the house as well bu the Sudanese and s Sudanese caucuses.why this administration is supporting the efforts of rick machar is mind boggling.there are now calls for an interim government and new elections to replace salva kir as well.speaking of sudan has anyone noticed the reports in Iraqi media where they are planning to assist bashir by constructing a new refinery?we know that Iraq is a soverieign state and can conduct its own foreign policy but you have to admire the irony of this.
central African republic friend france has voted to extend their presence in the strife torn nation where a resolution to the crisis with various facets seems to be sliding out of reach daily.in recent days us allies Georgia and turkey have announced their commitment to provide troops to the eu mission that is supposed to take over from france.the situation is so dire that after the success that monusco had with a regional intervention brigade in the kivo provinces in the dem.rep. of congo that the concept is currently being discussed to see if it will be applicable in the central African republic.
Nigeria
book haram has killed an estimated 400 people in a series of attacks.these include the destruction of two villages as well.the group has also threatened neighboring Cameroon as well as the country has reportedly been offering intelligence and logistical support to Nigeria.there has also been a report that 25 bh fighters have been captured recently while training in niger.this should be an interesting line of questioning if asked.
