Support for Burundi political process way forward, SC told

United Nations, Nov 21 (UNI) Despite challenges towards inclusive dialogue in Burundi, the United Nations must continue to support the political process there, the Organisation's envoy to the east African country has told the Security Council.
“The United Nations has the obligation, whatever difficulties persist, to continue its good offices mission, alongside regional actors, to allow Burundi to emerge from crisis,” Michel Kafando, the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Burundi said on Monday, presenting his regular quarterly briefing (in French) to the 15-member Council, said the UN News.
Mr Kafando informed the Security Council that in supporting regional efforts to advance negotiations on the conduct of an inclusive intra-Burundian dialogue, he had met with national authorities, opposition figures both within the country and those exiled in Brussels, as well as regional actors, including the mediator, President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni of Uganda.
