Samenvatting |
Summary of the NGO Contact Group Meeting. Max van den Berg (MEP): Introduction; Stefaan Marysse (University of Antwerp): Plunder, war and (under)development in DRC; Christian Dietrich (International Peace Information Service): Central Africa's Diamond Economy; Jeroen Cuvelier (International Peace Information Service): European companies and the coltan trade.
The meeting focused on the illicit exploitation of natural resources in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the implications of this exploitation for the continuation of armed conflict in the country, and the potential role that the European Union can play in de-linking the resources and conflict issue in an effort to establish a definitive peace settlement. The meeting was off-the record, and these notes do not serve as a faithful record of the proceedings but rather aim to highlight some of the principal issues and recommendations raised.
