Mass arrests, high-profile assassinations, and the killing of more than 200 people have caused at least 220,000 Burundians to flee the country. President Nkurunziza's decision to run for a third term in office is widely viewed as a catalyst for this crisis, which has splintered his own party and hardened the line between his supporters and those who oppose him. The roots of today's crisis precede the most recent elections in Burundi. This particular part of the world has borne witness to many mass atrocities. Burundi's 12-year civil war is among them. As we look to what has contributed to the breakdown of governance in Burundi, it is important to pay attention to the ethnic underpinnings of this and previous conflicts. Understanding the role that other actors in the region are playing is critical to understanding how to stop the violence in Burundi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Committee on Foreign Relations United St\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540650707\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540650702\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.11d","brand":"Committee on Foreign Relations United St","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48623218360575,"sku":"9781540650702","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-security-and-political-crisis-committee-on-foreign-relations-united-st-9781540650702","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
