That's a great question. Those are great points, and I certainly agree with you.
There's no question that there is a direct relationship between the observance of human rights, addressing the humanitarian crisis, and good governance. What we see over and over again, and it goes directly to your question about democracy, is a lack of inclusiveness in all the processes involved.
In my personal view, one of the real shortcomings of the peace process leading up to the agreement in August 2015 was a lack of inclusivity. It was basically a ceasefire between political elites. It was not nearly broad enough in including all the stakeholders and various parties who should have been at the table.
That's in direct response to your question. Over and over again, including in what I mentioned a moment ago—this so-called “national dialogue”—we see processes put forward by the government that are not inclusive. They are essentially top-down, dominated by government processes, directly contrary to democracy.
Certainly, then, developing democracy in the country is a long-term solution. It's like what we've all been hearing in recent days about how the fight against ISIS is a generations-long process. Unfortunately, similar things can be said about bringing democracy to the country. You're dealing with a very uneducated population—and again I don't mean that in any insulting way—that does not have a history or culture of self-governance.
That's one of the problems in general. All these people in the government itself are coming from a military background. They've been fighting off and on for the last 50 years, and even the current president was essentially a warlord at one point in time.
There is, then, no deep culture or history of civil self-governance. You're absolutely right: it's a serious challenge, and we have to direct much more attention to it. I'm not sure I can give you an easy solution as to how to get there.
