        @BBCAfrica @nkosi_milton we acknowledge Burundi's sovereignty but also recognize the impunity within. How much blood before intervention?

        @bbcafrica @nkosi_milton AU can't do anything that involves money without EU/US support. Ironically, they want permanent seat at the UNSC

        @ShzatP @BBCAfrica @nkosi_milton no they don't! Only States can become members of UNSC. They merely advocate for an African State to be a PM

        @legalali3n @bbcafrica @nkosi_milton If the AU is advocating for a member state for PM seat, it is definitely going to be an AU seat
