Failure to reform army clouds Bissau's bid to turn page on coup

BISSAU (Reuters) - Under pressure from Western donors, Guinea-Bissau is struggling to organise elections to turn the page on a military coup but many in the West African country say a failure to reform the army means a new government will be vulnerable.

The tiny former Portuguese colony - which has become a staging post for South American cartels trafficking cocaine into Europe - was plunged into turmoil in April 2012 when soldiers toppled the government days before a presidential election.
