Clinton’s Visit Should be a Debate, Not a Lecture – Gutto

The Centre for African Renaissance says South Africa should use the visit by United States Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, to discuss serious issues of economic trade and conflict resolution in Africa rather than be lectured by her on matters of good governance.

The Centre’s Shadrack Gutto, points out that the country should also put on the table issues to which it wishes the US to respond positively.

He argues that some of these issues include; the Darfur conflict, taking seriously the Durban review conference in Switzerland, which evaluated progress towards the goals set by the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance held in Durban in 2001.
