“Help us fight arms trafficking in Africa”: Cardinal to Leaders, International Community

Following reports that give accounts to an increase in terrorism and armed conflict in some parts of Africa with experiences in Africa’s Sahel region contrasting the process recorded in the fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, an African Cardinal has regarded access to arms a key factor in insecurity on the continent and appealed to relevant political leaders and the international community to help stop the proliferation of weapons in Africa.
