Democracy was assassinated here when Patrice Lumumba was assassinated. And who brought democracy back to this country? We are the ones who did that after pushing out the dictatorship in 1997.

Within the constitution there is the word "referendum." You can change the constitution by referendum. But we have not yet called for a referendum. As of today, we have not yet organized any meeting or discussions on how to change the constitution.

I have always tried to live my life as a just and humble person. When the sanctions were announced, Europe should have questioned the people who have been sanctioned as well as to find the truth. That did not happen. How can Europe act fairly? Do they base their decisions on hearsay?

The constitution is very clear as to how and when the president hands over power. He can only hand power over to an elected successor.

Nobody as of today can produce any oral or written statement from me talking about changing the constitution.

I cannot interpret the constitution. Only the constitutional courts can interpret the constitution.

We are not going to finance elections when we need to fight to win back occupied territory.
