"Stop supplying the Africans with weapons because they are killing each other. You are guilty of the atrocity of fratricidal wars: Africans do not make modern sophisticated weapons. You even go and choose the richer countries and the ones having more raw materials to go and stir up turmoil and conflict. The future will no doubt condemn you without pity. Immediately stop any further supply of weapons."
