The leader of Burundi’s main opposition party, the National Freedom Council (CNL), says he will return to Burundi as soon as possible because the country needs his contribution to national development. Agathon Rwasa left Burundi over the weekend for Tanzania when a faction of the CNL announced his removal for allegedly failing to unify the party. Rwasa tells VOA’s James Butty, democracy is at stake, and that the international community must help prevent the worst from happening.
