Kenya Crisis: Support Kofi Annan

Kenya: Stop the Bloodshed



18-01-2008

Dear Karel De Gucht,

I write as one of your fellow citizens to urge you to avoid prematurely recognising anyone as president of Kenya, and to support a mediated resolution and an independent review of the election results. This message is also being sent to Kenya’s leaders through a full-page advertisement in the East African Standard newspaper. By applying pressure until mediators like Kofi Annan can broker agreement and an election review, governments around the world can help to bring the candidates to the negotiating table, and to prevent further bloodshed.

Yours sincerely,

Jo Creten
