Senior American Diplomat comments on Biya’s call for national dialogue 0

Erstwhile US Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Herman Cohen believes only an international mediator can end the violence in Cameroon’s Anglophone regions.

“By offering a national dialogue to end violence, Cameroon’s Biya has, for the first time, recognized the legitimacy of the anglophone rebels who are fighting for political separation,” Herman Cohen wrote on Twitter.

“Believe that an international mediator, preferably from the US, would expedite end of violence,” he said.

Cohen brokered an end to the long standing war between Eritrea and Ethiopia.
