I was
deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life and damage
caused by Sunday's explosions at a munitions depot in
Brazzaville. The U.S. Embassy in Brazzaville is in the
process of issuing a disaster declaration that will allow
the U.S. to provide emergency assistance and relief to help
the victims of this tragedy. We are working with the
Government of the Republic of Congo and the international
community to determine what additional assistance we can
provide to the government and people of Congo. Our thoughts
and prayers are with all Congolese people during this
difficult
time.
