Aug 4, 2009 USA/Kenya: What Kind of Partnership?
"Many people had hoped that Kenya's 2007 presidential elections
would cement Kenya's democratic progress and would provide a solid
foundation for the country to break out of its economic doldrums
and begin to achieve some of its enormous economic potential.
Instead, the 2007 elections brought trade and commerce to a halt,
polarized the country along regional and ethnic lines and for a
brief moment nearly brought the country to the edge of civil war."
- Johnnie Carson, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Africa
Aug 4, 2009 Kenya: National Government of Impunity?
On July 30, only days before this week's visit of U.S. Secretary of
State Hilary Clinton to Kenya, the first stop on her 7-country
Africa trip, the Kenyan Cabinet decided to reject special prosecution of
those responsible for post-election violence in 2007 and 2008,
whether under a domestic special tribunal or by the International
Criminal Court (ICC), to which the case has been referred. Kenyan
human rights advocates have been scathing in their critique of the
Cabinet decision, and will be closely parsing the signals from
the Clinton visit.
Mar 25, 2009 Kenya: Crisis Renewed
"I am shaken. I am shocked. And that is, apparently, the intent.
For all of us to be shaken. For all of us to be shocked. For all of
us to hear the threat, heed the warning. The threat and the warning
implicit in last week's assassinations of Kingara Kamau and John
Paul Oulu of the Oscar Foundation." - L. Muthoni Wanyeki, Kenya
