RAPAPORT... The Kimberley Process (KP) declared three new ‘compliant
zones’ in the Central African Republic, meaning diamond exports from those
regions can resume after a suspension of more than two years.
The KP’s monitoring team approved shipments from the
sub-prefectures of Boda, Carnot and Nola in the west of the country on
September 19, the KP announced.
CAR was re-admitted to the KP in May and two shipments have
already been made from the Berberati region.
“Good progress has been made and hopefully we can move
forward to a normalization of the situation in the western zone of CAR,” said
Ahmed Bin Sulayem, the United Arab Emirates-based chair of the KP for 2016.
