CAR Elects Mayor as New Leader

Bangui mayor Catherine Samba-Panza has been elected interim president of the Central African Republic, making her the first woman to hold the post.

She beat her rival Desire Kolingba in the second round of voting by the interim parliament.

Meanwhile, EU foreign ministers agreed at a meeting on Monday to send troops to CAR, diplomatic sources said.

Violence has continued, with two Muslim men killed and burnt in the capital Bangui on Sunday.

Nearly a million people have been forced from their homes – 20% of the population – by the conflict between Muslims and Christians.

    The problem is something which too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
    I’m very happy I found this in my search for something regarding this.
