One of the things that concerned me in previous testimony, on another day, was talk about how our peacekeepers were involved with some of the rapes--the UN peacekeepers--from time to time. I think one of the real problems is the devaluation of women in that part of the world. It's almost like a poison that anybody can catch from time to time, especially when there's such impunity.
Is there anybody you can go back to in government to tell about the types of concerns you've raised here? In other words, is there anybody who might listen to you when you say that there should be an assigned person responsible for the lines of accountability?
No? I didn't think there would be. The purpose of that question is that it's something this committee may be able to help you with. That's what I hope will come out of our discussions here.
Thanks, Mr. Chair.
