Many people think that "Blood Diamond" only a diamond, pink or reddish in his possession. These diamonds, but this is not a definition. Blood Diamond, which is sometimes known as conflict diamonds, are diamonds that operate in war-torn areas of Africa. Leaders of mining operations, fighters and insurgents, and the product from the extraction of diamonds used to finance the conflicts and wars. There is a huge violation of human rights here and the villages and communities have already said, either killed or enslaved en masse to have diamond mines are slaves.
These activities have been for a very long time, but this year brought to the General Assembly of the United Nations ago, refers to the years 1999 and 2000. In December 2000, the United Nations recognized the role of the diamonds used to finance rebels in Africa. They came up with a common resolution, which aims to reduce the link between the sale of these special diamonds in the world diamond market.
Resolution was submitted to the international community aware of this situation and well-known in Blood Diamond or the trade in conflict diamonds. The resolution to the country and diamond buyers know about it, and very bad press it got when it was disclosed that the source of financing insurgent operations, diamonds and war in Africa may be considered. For the majority, the resolution of the desired effect.
In addition to this resolution, several countries have created their own sanctions and its own methods to stop the sale of such diamonds. The basic idea is that no one buy these diamonds and diamond mining, which seriously reduced or even stopped. Like everything else, if not the market for these blood diamonds or conflict diamonds, then something does not buy on the market is no longer sold.
