I'm afraid I'll ask you another general question, but I can't get over this six million figure, six million people dying because of the conflict.
I have the strong sense that if, in North America, over a two-decade period, six million people died because of conflict, it would have our attention. Our attention would be seized on it day in and day out, media attention and otherwise.
What explains the world's lack of attention when it comes to the Congo?
I'm not setting up a straw man question for you, because one could immediately say racism, and I think that's a factor here. One could also say that there is conflict fatigue because Africa has been home to so many wars and civil wars.
What are your thoughts? You're an expert. You've studied this for some time. Why is the world not focused on the Congo?
