President Mokgweetsi E. K. Masisi At The Natural Diamond Summit

As a country, we will continue to support investment in Debswana, to ensure that mining continues to take place and that there is reliable supply of diamonds to the market. But more importantly, we want to continue working collectively with the industry, to respond to the needs of the consumer who purchases our products.

We are aware that retail clients now increasingly demand to know among other things, where the diamonds that they purchase are sourced from. They want to know how the diamonds have improved the communities living in the areas where they are mined.
