vehicles as we continue our conversations about the continent of africa with today, focus on a subject that is very painful to wrap our minds around the conflict between the democratic republic of congo and rolanda. and in order to understand and appreciate that conflict, we must always go back to history. we must always remind ourselves that these conflicts that we encounter into the continent of africa as a result of the petition of the continent when julie is come, brag in your area was alive. and he was asked at one time about the problem in congo at that time. it was known as a he reminded these audience is that

these board does that. we inherited part of the problem is important to note that they did in 1963. when most countries that regained independence do are those during the add this up of a missing one to the board has to be re negotiate. diploma said no, no said no, no to say no on a 2nd meeting was actually held in the title you 1964 at which as it was resolved, that the colonial boundaries should be detained. did this call or the doctrine of the, in a viola ability of colonial boundaries. it is in that context that we must see the conflict in congress because when the belgians to what is the now the democratic republic of congo, there was a time when rolanda and the balloon,

the actually controlled by the germans. and it was then, or there was then known as the one, the, and then they became trust territories of the belgians. and that is what most people know, but not the time the boundary as well. such a niche. is that a large segment of the one these? why in the i've seen the thoughts the kingdom was awfully in the d. r. c on some of them was to be found in what is present day one the on the present day wounded. so when the 1st the program started in one day, when the more not cause removed in 1959, when there was a must have caught on the top, see why this bus, the different parts of africa, particularly in uganda. some found themselves in tons and the, and of cause some remained in east on google. that in my view was big genesis of

the problems that we see today. and it is also around resources. it must not just be seen as an estimate conflict. as somebody said, come go, i think i think it is much in meredith, in his book, the fortunes of africa. he said that the congo is saw in the house with minerals, some of the least conservatively estimate that there is that the 4.3.4 trillion, was of minerals in the democratic republic of congo. so because of the history of chromebook started with the conflict number one with the elimination of the moon, but number 2, with the 5, the attempted succession of got down the on of costs. the conflicts have generated on environment where there is a conflict on it came to a head when demo, but the gym was collapsing when demo,

but the resume was collapsing on the hall. the city of bella was then beginning to mount is fight abuse. the more with the resume, it is instructive that the administrations of far the government at that time and you ready for a good that was 70 in uganda. why in the forefront of supporting the could be left was and then did. when the bill of forces found themselves moving to get shot. so they were led to by that one d. as far as this. and i know a friend of mine who has been the general and is now in the military or intelligence advising in, in, in honda. so the problem i applied a different part of the time and the company is the government, the company's administration. during the cabella, one, that is a be the hall when he was assessing they did on the sun 2 called joseph gabriella. the problems one, not that many,

but in 1909 to 6. something happened in phone book which led to what is sometimes referred to as the african. why the? well, there are so many countries involved in that war. in 1996, there was i've been fight and it is estimated the nearly 1000000, depending on who you are talking to. 1000000 dead on millions of costs displays on this in itself. did create a problem where the company's administration one now beginning to say that the one d is in congo, must go back to the one on the play in the calling bid. when days was saying, we another one, these, we have all these we were born here and it is the boundary, is the separated us from off tips on can in what is present day one. so as a result of that, they have been many attempts at peace. we know that the united nations has the funding for us that these present in congo even as we speak. so there has been on

attempt at the mediation by the u. n. it is important to note that the democratic republic of congo is a member of 3 regional organizations, the solid, soft within the region. it is a member. it is also a member of this central africa nation and has been admitted into the east african community. that is why all these attempts at the mediation, i've always been taking place, but somehow this has not worked as well. and we now have a fuss, which is the m $23.00. and they have been up to this. and so, which have been documented even by the united nation, that the m 23 get some logistical support from the land. but the one day is government has always been clear that these individuals are fighting for the territory. they may share something with us in terms of ethnic origin,

but the companies they may call themselves by normal land get but the vehicle with ease. and i think the boss is not to be disputed. and the question then is how to use all of this. and 2 things of happened in there isn't past this, not the kind of community, including countryside desk and yeah, and uganda to the forces to the democratic republic of congo, particularly in the eastern, but to preserve peace. but the companies was very unhappy because there was what then was called the night road, the initiative we did not go very fast, they then went back to the side deck on the side of the supply. the forces during the administration of rober got been will god be and even now during the administration of for the moon and god bless. and that to has not done much in terms of resolving this, but the place the question then has been if it is true that the one

that is involved, if it is true, that uganda is involved. if it is true that the democratic republic of congo is unhappy with these, particularly with the one, what then must be done on the ongoing basis. and it goes to asian has come from a very unusual course. child is on board and many of the meetings that i've been held young or in the month of november of 2020 full getting the head of state summit in alicia in 1000. yeah. it was a not to the is as the president of global she shifted the did not attend because she did not want to meet for them to come down. and of course, the forgotten me, it was all ready to meet. they thought it would be negotiated, but cindy office as well at present. and one of the things that was raised during

that meeting is that there is need to support the ongoing initiative. so you sort of p a now that a number of things have been accepted, that there is a conflict which is of a diverse stating kind and that there is need to ensure that that conflict is brought to an end and the will require, among other things that the forces that are being supported by the one that as it is now documented by the u. n. and the forces that seem to be the cussing instability and that's part of the area ought to be brought to the negotiation table. but it is also important to note that even as we talk about the m 23, which is one of the better organized there is documentation of this, the show that they are nearly 120 the groups in it's on the phone while on profit even more, and this must be understood in the context of external hundreds,

external himes to mean individuals on the private companies which i involved in mining in the democratic republic of phone with, based on the side of it. and they have these, i'm the groups, we provide them with the security. so that's even a view of focusing on the $23.00. the question is, what are you going to do with these groups which uh, not under any formal command, but which posed a threat to the democratic republic of congo. i know that the meeting over child and so which brought together the presence just your kid and for then cook, i'm a, i've now agreed that there is a need for us ceasefire on one. hopes that in the not too distant future, the competence of the font is in dispute would be brought together. and one of the things that for the child are and so as i said, which i think is critical, is that for the purposes of negotiation,

we ought not to apportion blame that for the purposes of ensuring that the see is fire or is it is important that the font is come to the table with a clean hot, and they have been remind the times without number that in did in the context of east africa, even in the context of side of it is important that they all agreed to us is fire and when they have a stable, sees fire, that is when you can now begin to negotiate us to the offshore residence of the people who are called in to dispute and who are the source of this problem. but what is clear and what is historically documented is that this conflict is a conflict. we charge the troops because of the colonial boundaries on this colonial boundaries divided peoples in a mind that the was that once a bit tribute and painful, and that it is now in comment upon the administration. both in the democratic

republic of bumble and in the republic of rhonda to ensure that they allow the young girl a process to be successful because it has the mud as the most acceptable, the more stable and the one that is pointing. the fact is in the right direction and the mood is also right. the mood is right that the companies, but additions on the code, the one these but additions appear to be comfortable with for the child or and so on. perhaps the fact that these friday move down day non goal is very useful. and in this regard, i look forward to the day when the d. s. a and one to would sit at the table of negotiation and they would come out and face with the breakout and they will collaborate as brothers and sisters in the stuff done. community side doc, and of course the continental profit. thank you very much. we'll continue with our

conversations on the continent of africa, but let us take a break. we'll come back to continue with the conversation. the look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings accept. we're such orders at conflict with the 1st law show alignment of the patient. we should be very careful about visual intelligence at the point, obviously, is to create a trust rather than to the various things with

artificial intelligence we have summoning the payment, the robot must protect this phone. existence was on the i am theater the moon, but here in the center of night road, this city in the republic of kenya. and as we continue to focus on the continent of africa. today we focus on the critical question of the industrialization of the mazda continents. it is always important that the we realize that the mazda continent is divided into a 50 full or countries courtesy of the colonizer,

as with the diabolical conference in violin, in 18841880 5. when the struggle for independence started in on is the need as of the day was quite clear that if i was to realize up what 10 show she had 3 and that's good eyes. and we see these attempts of industrialization, azalia, the 1900 on fifty's. when gum, i'm good enough, start who's saying all easy. nice. generalize this? this was a con. no. it is all about the attempt of industrialization. when his thoughts, they are swan hi done on the river nod. it is about industrialization. when he establishes the headed one.
