A short response. Yes.
Yes, we saw the crisis coming. There were warning signs, particularly in the statements made by the officials of the governing party specifically about behaviours related to human rights. What could have been done to avoid the situation or what could be done to avoid other crises in the future?
I mentioned the Arusha accord, which is in fact the foundation or the pizza dough of Burundian peace, if you will. If the provisions of the accord had been implemented as set out, with the assistance of the international community that made a commitment to oversee the ethical implementation of the accord, we would not be in the current situation.
All this is to say that, regardless of the decision you will be making and regardless of the other steps the UN or the African Union will take, if the international community does not provide ongoing oversight, the risks remain.
