Disgusting: The majority of the nations listed for “reciprocal” #tariffs on the 8-pg document distributed to reporters by the #Trump admin are #poor, #developing economies. They include some of the world’s poorest nations -- #SouthSudan, #Burundi & the #CentralAfricanRepublic -- as well as countries in the throes of #war, notably #Sudan.
This is absolutely crazy, as if central/horn of #Africa is about to errupt into full-on warefare: #SouthSudan, #Sudan, #Ethiopia, #Eritrea, #DRC, #Rwanda and now #Burundi. .../2 https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cq5znee2dxno

Der Konflikt im Ostkongo ist kompliziert - es geht um Bodenschätze, um ethnische Konflikte und die Interessen etlicher Nachbarländer. In der Region besteht Angst, dass sich der Konflikt ausweitet. Von Karin Bensch.
À la frontière du Burundi, la guerre se rapproche
Depuis plus d’un an, la frontière entre le #Burundi et le #Rwanda est fermée. L’avancée du M23, soutenu par le Rwanda à l’est de la RDC, à quelques kilomètres de la frontière burundaise, est une nouvelle source de tension.

“#Burundi aims to export more than 10 million tonnes (11 million tons) of avocados each year by 2030, said Niyukuri... Recent figures on Burundi’s foreign exchange earnings from the #avocado crop were not readily available.
The government’s target is to plant 50,000 avocado trees in each of Burundi’s 17 provinces. Local authorities in provinces such as Kayanza want each household to own at least 10 trees producing exportable avocados.”
