"content": "This is a law that will help us focus more attention on how we manage our natural resources by bringing the international element. The world is now a global village. No country is an island and the more we discuss those matters from an international perspective the better. Anytime you ignore a matter from an international perspective, you can only make it worse. Indeed, it pains some of us to see what is happening in Burundi for instance, as it is swiftly becoming a victim of international abandonment. Let me use this opportunity to call upon this House and country that we cannot sit back and watch what is going on in Burundi. That is why some of us have gone ahead to start a bipartisan caucus in this House called “Friends of Burundi” so that we can rally political attention on what is going on there. I support this Bill and pray that through it, we can manage our natural resources better in a manner that is beneficial to us and future generations."
