A barge carries passengers and cargo up the Congo River, near Mbandaka (formerly Coquilhatville). The town is 364 miles by river from Kinshasa and the distance by road is more than 2,000 miles and takes at least 45 hours to drive. Mbandaka was the center of the UN’s efforts using the Uruguayan Navy as peacekeepers to clear the river of pirates in order to open the country’s interior to transport.
