Annan Recommends Ending UN Mission in Haiti

United Nations Secretary- General Kofi Annan Tuesday recommended that the International Civilian Support Mission in Haiti (MICAH) be terminated when its mandate ends on February 6 next year.

In a report to the United Nations Security Council and the General Assembly Tuesday, Annan warned that the political and electoral crisis in Haiti had deepened, and noted the increase in violent crime, which included the August 7 murder of a staff member of the UN mission.

In the current climate, he said, "it will be necessary to devise new forms of technical assistance that might better allow the United Nations system to continue supporting the Haitian people."

He added that "in the light of the conditions in Haiti, a renewal of the mandate of MICAH is not advisable."

The current mission, which took over from the previous UN police training mission in March, includes technical assistance to the police and human rights monitoring.
