Congo in the Spotlight & Sec. of State Pompeo Meets with Kim

Anya Parampil highlights the Democratic Republic of Congo after Congolese Dr. Denis Mukwege was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last week. She explains how the country’s brutal history of colonization by Belgium created the deadliest conflict since World War II, with up to 6.9 million people dying since 1998 in a battle for the Congo’s natural resources and minerals.  Kambale Musavuli, National Spokesperson for Friends of the Congo, joins In Question to describe how he thinks the Congolese people can finally win control of their own destiny. In today’s World Update Anya reports on Turkey’s announcement that it will place a quota on steel imports, as well as a new promise from DPRK following discussions between Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un in Pyongyang.
