France Calls for Political Dialogue in C. Africa
2013-03-25
[An Nahar] French President Francois Hollande
...the Socialist president of La Belle France, and a fine job he's doing of it...
 has called on all parties in the Central African Republic "to remain calm and hold talks on a national unity government", after rebels seized control of the capital Bangui, his office said on Sunday.

Hollande noted the departure of President Francois Bozize, called on all parties to form a government in accordance with a peace deal reached in January, and asked "the gangs to respect the population".

#2  Kinda late for dialogue. The rebels occupy the Seat of All Power now. Only thing left to do is start a rebel movement to try and oust the oppressors.
