Can you unpick this for us?

I think probably the biggest story on the African continent this week, Georgina, is this real danger that Ethiopia is going to plunge back into a civil war.

The northern part of Ethiopia, the Tigray region, experienced a civil war between 2020 and 2022.

Hundreds of thousands of people were killed.

Millions were displaced.

There's been a ceasefire in place for the last four years.

The peace really has held.

Just unpick that for us.

And what are you most focused now? Opportunity wise?

Um, right now I'm most focused on investor relations.

I am looking to build relationships with both accredited and non-accredited investors.

Um, Primarily, we're looking for high net worth earners, people who are in that, you know, three, four, five hundred thousand dollars annual bracket because there is 37 percent tax bracket.

That's 37 percent.

Wow.

And a lot of them, surprisingly, don't have any kind of ongoing tax strategies to deal with that, which means every April they're writing some whopping checks to the IRS.

And what do you think are some of the skills that made the biggest difference for you?

The quote was, "Rwanda is fully committed to disengagement of its forces." That's an admission that Rwanda's been there.

Indeed.

Um, a- a- and Rwanda has danced around this issue, uh, for a very long time, uh, denying either that they were backing the M23 rebels, uh, who are wreaking havoc in eastern Congo at the moment, denying that, uh, Rwandan forces themselves, the army has been a- across the border, and, and I think the whole world now knows that, that Rwanda is very heavily involved in this conflict.

Uh, I think that Congo has learnt a great deal from the South African submission to the ICJ around the Gaza case, uh, in which we saw that submission center on things that the Israeli government and, and the Israeli Defense Forces had said.

A- and I think Congo's submission to the ICJ in relation to Rwanda draws a lot on that experience.

Uh, they're as much as possible trying to use, uh, Rwanda's own words.

But, but I think there are two other reasons why, uh, Congo taking this case to the ICJ is, is really telling and, and surprising in some senses.

Just to interrupt you briefly, Phil, it is worth saying this is one of the wars that President Trump says he's already solved.

I always ask my guests, who are you and why did you get into working with school?

Perfect.

Yeah.

Well, my name's Phil.

Phil Clark.

There I am, um, a business owner.

Obviously, online business is the main thing we do.

Which now brings us to have you found marketing a diff- difficult piece to drive traffic to your community? Or how do you go about driving traffic to get people to sign up?

Dynamic duo

... it's, it, it's, it's a pretty interesting s- one.

So John worked for Austral Fisheries.

George Calas, I guess Senior, was my boss's at the time.

I worked for a company called Focus Fisheries.

Brett Horgan was my boss.

And his first boss in seafood was George Calas Senior.

... unfairness of it, like the impact it's had and what you think needs to happen.

Let's go to Rwanda now, and a French court has reopened the genocide case into the former president's wife there.

Uh, th- this is a big story in Rwanda.

Uh, the, the, the reason is that the former president's wife, Agathe Habyarimana, according to the Rwandan authorities, uh, was a central figure in the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda in 1994.

And, and I think most criminal investigations, uh, have suggested that there's at least a case against Agathe Habyarimana, uh, for her complicity in helping to organize the genocide in 1994.

Those are the allegations, uh, at least.

Uh, she, after 1994, fled Rwanda.

She's been living in France for the last 30 years.

And finally, Phil, let's go to Mali.
