After the elections, in conjunction with the entire international community, I made a statement to the effect that the elections were not fair, transparent, or credible. The statement was made on behalf of the Carter Center, the European Union's election observation mission, and the Catholic church. I see that the same thing is happening again today. Six months before the elections, when I arrived in the DRC, the country was having the same problems—the electoral roll and all the rest.
What can Canada do right now so that what happened in 2011 doesn't happen again, especially if the work of international observers is hindered? Can we train witnesses from the political parties? Can we make statements? Is there anything Canada can do?
