UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-Moon, Warns Against Sending Peacekeeping Force to Somalia

(Version anglaise seulement)
UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-Moon, has warned against sending a UN peacekeeping force to Somalia. He said a UN force should remain the UN's goal, but that deploying now could worsen the country's conflict.

Mr Ban said the goal would only be achieved after progress on political reconciliation and restoring peace after two decades of conflict. He spoke ahead of a donor conference aiming to raise 200m euros ($260m) for peacekeeping and national security.

The international donor conference is seeking to raise funds for the African Union peacekeeping effort and to create national security forces. Those forces could include a 6,000-strong national security force and police force of 10,000 officers. Only about 4,300 peacekeepers from an intended 8,000-strong AU force are currently deployed in Mogadishu.
