A LOOK AT THE CURRENT REALITY OF MOSAMBIC / UN REGARD SUR LA RÉALITÉ ACTUELLE DU MOZAMBIQUE / UNA MIRADA A LA REALIDAD ACTUAL DE MOZAMBIQUE

 

A LOOK AT THE CURRENT REALITY OF MOSAMBIC - 

Fr. Davide Caisse, Salvatoriano

 

 

Q: What is the current situation in Mozambique? Can you say that there is peace in Mozambique?

Padre Davide: The current situation in Mozambique is very difficult for the majority of the Mozambican population due to the frequent terrorist attacks, which claim many lives and cause hunger and misery. It is a complex and challenging situation in which several factors contribute to instability in the different regions of the country. Although fighting and terror exist in the north of Mozambique, the reality is different in the center and south of the country, where there is relative stability and progress. However, the struggle for development and against terror and other problems, for example corruption, continues. Therefore, it cannot really be said that there is peace in Mozambique.
