KINSHASA, Congo (AP) - Congo's president told the U.N. Security Council on Monday he would do his utmost to stop political intimidation and incitement of hatred during campaigning for the country's first national elections in more than four decades, diplomats said.
The council met privately at the presidential palace for an hour with President Joseph Kabila, who is one of 33 candidates for the presidency of this mineral-rich central African nation struggling to emerge from years of conflict.
The council later held separate meetings with Congo's four vice presidents three of whom also are running for president in the July 30 ballot.
