Côte d’Ivoire regresses on the appointment front

Côte d’Ivoire: Military Promotions Mock Abuse Victims | Human Rights Watch: "(Washington) – The promotion of two Côte d’Ivoire military commanders against whom there are serious allegations of involvement in grave crimes raises concerns about President Alassane Ouattara’s commitment to end impunity and ensure justice for victims, Human Rights Watch said today."

Ordinarily when trying to improve conditions you do not allow the fox into the chicken coop. But promotion has a tendency to double as a means of trying to get rid of problems. In general the result is a further delay of progress warranting continued agitation for democratic reform.
