Struggle in Africa, as everywhere, is due to human action, and can be ended by human motion. This can be a truth that shames us for each and every conflict that any of us allow to persevere, and emboldens us to imagine that we all can address and deal with every conflict that any of us decide to deal with.
For the United Nations there is absolutely no greater purpose, no deeper determination and no greater purpose than avoiding armed conflict so that people almost everywhere can also enjoy peace and abundance. In The continent of africa, as elsewhere, the United Nations progressively is being essential to interact to intra-State fluctuations and conflict. In those conflicts, the main purpose, to an alarming degree, is the break down not of armies but of civilians and entire ethnical groups.
Preventing such wars has stopped being an issue of guarding States or protecting allies. This can be a question of defending humanity itself.
Africa is not peaceful. A lot more than 30 wars have been fought in Africa since 1970, and most of these are actually internal rather than inter-state wars. In 1996 alone, 14 of the 53 countries of Africa were involved with armed issues, and they resulted in more than 8 million refugees and homeless men and women. And also this is prior to a recent eruption of war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo that has now involved many of the states in the Great Lakes region and beyond. Many of these conflicts have already been classified by serious violence. In Rwanda alone, in a matter of 100 days, about a million citizens were massacred - a degree of murders that is almost unmatched in world history. So even when there are "good" reasons behind conflicts, there are no "good" reasons why these clashes degenerate into violence and brutality that shame the human race.
The existence of armed groups, is a chronic element of political-military life on the African nation since independence.
This two-part project blogs about the the battle that armed groups pose to local community, national and regional security in Africa.
Describes of the undertaking profiles Africa's most active and set up groups. The group's into the spotlight and the following are not the only one's working in Africa presently. However, such groups have either endured the test of time, presented a continual challenge to the government's in their area of procedures, or are not dictated by the regards to a peacefulness deal with the government's influenced.
