DRC Opposition Says President is Working to Delay Elections<\/a><\/u><\/span> | 26 May 2016 | Voice of America<\/p>\n

Security forces in the Democratic Republic of Congo broke up opposition demonstrations across the country Thursday. Two people are believed to have been killed in the eastern city of Goma. The march was organized by a group of leading opposition parties to protest what they claim are President Joseph Kabila’s efforts to stall elections until he can change the constitution to allow him to seek a third term.<\/p>\n

A Constitutional Coup in Congo<\/a><\/u><\/span> | 26 May 2016 | Foreign Policy<\/p>\n

resident Joseph Kabila is a man of few words, but it wouldn\u2019t take many to reassure people that he intends to step down in December, when his second elected term in office ends, instead of dragging his country into a constitutional crisis. The Democratic Republic of the Congo has never had a peaceful transfer of power, and the president\u2019s unwillingness to commit to vacating office on time has many worried that it won\u2019t have a transfer of power at all this year. Six months before voters are supposed to go to the polls, Kabila stands accused of deliberately hindering electoral preparations in order to engineer another term.<\/p>\n
