Omar Bongo

Famous quotes by Omar Bongo:

"But the Western countries that link their partnership with the poorest countries with respect for democracy also have to consider that they have obligations towards these countries."

"The most powerful State in the world, which up to now was relatively protected from terrorist violence, is no longer an inviolable sanctuary."

"Do not forget that the Arab countries, starting with Algeria and Egypt, are the ones that have paid the heaviest toll because of Islamic terror."

"But it is important to observe that when Europe or the United Nations impose sanctions that are supposed to be aimed against a certain regime, usually generally millions of people end up being directly punished."

"Globalization, far from putting an end to power diplomacy between States, has, on the contrary, intensified it."

"Certainly, Africa accounts for only l % of world trade, and we cannot assure our development on our own."

"It is important to prevent criminals capable of such inhuman behavior from taking advantage of this misery to justify their terrible acts."

"We do not control the trade of our resources, which are an important factor of prosperity for the dominant nations."

"The African Union has to act in order to put an end to armed conflicts that undermine the continent, to fight against the devastation caused by AIDS and other contagious diseases, to promote sustainable development of its member states."

"In short, we have, among African countries, a duty of solidarity."

"From the time of independences until the end of the Cold War, in spite of the participation of a considerable number of African states in the non-aligned movement, everyone in fact chose to align with one or another of the two major blocks."

"The resources of our continent attract, more than ever, the interests of rich countries."
