lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the DRC is a classic example for Western politicians of how it is unacceptable to use African nations as pawns on a diplomatic chessboard. Today’s problems in the DRC are a direct consequence of her abandonment after the Cold War on the back of Belgian King Leopold II’s earlier use of this beautiful mineral-rich country as his personal fiefdom. As we all wish for a stable future here, the African-led UN force must now, more than ever before, face up to questions over their past conduct. Accordingly, I question whether a man facing over 121 allegations of breaches of human rights, General Bruno Mandevu, should still be a senior officer in a Congolese UN-joint military operation against the FDLR. Can someone under such scrutiny really be allowed to remain in a position of authority as we endeavour to enter a fresh chapter of hope in this troubled region?"@en1
