Finding permanent solutions
to divisions in Africa
Thursday November 3, 2005
The Guardian
"...Because
the security council has failed to enforce the decision of the boundary
commission, which both parties had agreed to accept, Eritrea has now imposed
restrictions on UN peacekeepers. The prime minister of Ethiopia, Meles Zenawi,
while accepting the decision in principle, says the boundary cannot be
demarcated mechanically by splitting villages. The demarcation directions
provide that the line may be varied only on the basis of an express request
agreed between and made by both parties. The security council should now insist
that demarcation be started and the secretary general should offer to facilitate
any such requests for minor adjustments as may be are necessary to prevent the
division of communities. >>>"
