A Peace Worker Talks About the Crisis in Burundi
Yesterday in Burundi, the government announced that presidential and parliamentary elections planned for this Friday will be indefinitely postponed.
          The announcement follows more than a month of unrest as protesters and police have clashed in the capital of Bujumbura, leading to dozens of deaths and large scale imprisonment and an escalating refugee crisis.
          The protests erupted after the current two-term president Pierre Nkurunziza announced that he would seek an unconstitutional third term.
          For an update on the situation in Burundi, KBOO’s Sam Bouman spoke via Skype with Jean-Claude Nkundwa, a peace-building practitioner based in Burundi but currently living in Kigali, Rwanda due to the ongoing crisis. He spoke about the situation in both Bujumbura and the countryside, the growing power of the government-controlled Imbonerakure youth militia, the refugee crisis, regional and international responses (and lack thereof), media coverage, and the looming specters of ethnic violence and civil war.
