Title: BURUNDI: UPDATE
Authors: Theodros Dagne, Foreign Affairs and National Defense Division 
Abstract: In recent months, President Pierre Buyoya's government has taken steps to strengthen democracy in Burundi in order to have the sanctions imposed by eight African nations lifted and bring greater stability to the small central African country. Buyoya has stepped up an international campaign to gain support for the lifting of sanctions, and most observers seem to agree that his government has met all the conditions for their lifting.
