The World Diamond Council (WDC) made a statement in response to the recently published Amnesty International report on the diamond industry in general and the problems in the Central African Republic (CAR) in particular.
In its statement, WDC acknowledges that much remains to be done when it comes to managing the global diamond supply chain. "Nevertheless, Amnesty International in its report ignores the accurate and conscientious efforts that are being made in the CAR," the WDC said.
"Interim measures regarding the future export of diamonds from the CARs and the zone from which the stones will be supplied have been approved by the Kimberley Process (KP)," the Council added.
WDC invited Amnesty International, Which was once a member of the Civil Society Coalition of the KP Certification Scheme, again take part in this organization.
"We will continue to encourage industry, governments, the UN and non-governmental organizations to work together to improve KP and international monitoring of the diamond mining process," the Council noted.
The Council also stated that it is committed to the proliferation of conflict-free diamonds.
"We welcome the recommendations contained in the Amnesty International report and work together with the industry, providing full support for the trade in conflict-free diamonds. In addition, governments must establish their own control in producing areas and along their borders to prevent smuggling," concluded WDC.
