Kenya’s Ban On Ivory Trade Wins Support
Kenya's opposition to uncontrolled trade in ivory has won the backing of eight other African countries. Ghana, Tunisia, Mali, Congo, the Central African Republic, Ethiopia, Cameroun and Uganda yesterday unanimously agreed to back continued ban on the ivory trade until seven conditions on the sale from Southern African countries are fulfilled.
The countries have pledged to support a document Kenya intends to present during the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (Cites) meeting in Switzerland from March 15.
