JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, April 21 (UPI) -- Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu said the Central African Republic is on the edge of genocide.
In a statement released by the Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation, the Nobel Peace Prize winner noted, “The country stands on the brink of genocide. Some would say it has already commenced,” noting the beleaguered country’s internal struggles for power and resources in the past year have “degenerated into anarchy, hatred and ethnic cleansing.”
