Eli Izhakoff: KP Coalition of Government, Business and Civil Society August 12, 2010 (0 comments)
The events of the past weeks and months have consumed the bulk of our time, as we have struggled in a search for an equitable solution to the sale of diamonds from the Marange region of Zimbabwe. But my intention today was to look at the big picture, which is the role of the World Diamond Council as a factor in the diamond business, 10 years after it was established. I still intend doing just that, but first I must relate to the developments of the past several days.
The release from jail of Farai Maguwu on Monday clearly was a much-needed step in the right direction, and we hope it will help us deal with the merits of the situation, without being sidelined by other issues.
