"Obama, Africa, and Peace", argues that a renewed emphasis on diplomacy and peacemaking is the critical difference between simply managing the crises in Sudan, Eastern Congo, and Somalia, and ending them. "President-elect Obama faces some very hard choices in Africa, with the situations in Congo, Sudan, and Somalia threatening to go from bad to worse," noted Enough Executive Director and report co-author John Norris. "Despite this, the new administration has a genuine chance to fundamentally transform U.S. relations with the continent, and improve millions of lives in the process, by investing in peacemaking and preventive diplomacy."
