CAR situation deteriorating rapidly; France sees genocide risk The Central African Republic is on the verge of genocide, says Laurent Fabius, Frances foreign minister, and hopes the United Nations will allow France and the African Union to intervene in the strife-torn country. Meanwhile, UNICEF says the number of child soldiers in CAR now stands at 6,000, more than twice the previous number. Peacekeepers are certainly welcome to the extent they can protect civilians and prevent the outbreak of a genocide. But that is no guarantee. And it is not a guarantee they can arrive in time. Genocide remains a distinct possibility in the year 2013.
