“the United States would like to draw a sharp contrast between illegal, destabilizing mercenary activities and the legal, legitimate role that private military and security companies can play in many places, including in Central Africa. Private security actors train national militaries, provide logistics support to UN and AU peace operations, and protect facilities. Actors operating in these roles, in accordance with all applicable laws and the consent of host governments, contribute positively to the maintenance of peace and security across the continent.”
