UN Peacekeeping Chief to Step
Down
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The
United Nations peacekeeping chief
has told his staff that he will step
down this summer and end an
eight-year stint in which he often
voiced surprising criticism of U.N.
operations.
Jean-Marie Guehenno of France,
who has held the job longer than
anyone previously, told staff within
the Department of Peacekeeping
Operations and the Department of
Field Services that he intends to
leave his post when his contract
expires in mid-2008, U.N. deputy
spokeswoman Marie Okabe said
Thursday.
During that time the number of
U.N. troops has doubled from 50,000
to about 102,000 and his
department's budget has tripled from
$2.5 billion to $7.5 billion, with
new missions added in places such as
Sudan, East Timor, Liberia, Ivory
Coast and Haiti.
He has overseen the U.N.'s 17
peacekeeping operations and three
peace-building missions.
Guehenno has at times disagreed
with the Security Council on the
wisdom of sending peacekeeping
missions into war zones where peace
is elusive. Recently, he voiced
reservations in November about the
challenges facing the African Union-U.N.
peacekeeping force into Sudan's
Darfur region, including the lack of
helicop0ters and other equipment.
He also has fought to try to
focus more public attention on the
problem of sexual exploitation by
U.N. peacekeepers in the Democratic
Republic of Congo, Haiti and other
places. His job is one of the top
positions at the U.N. that countries
such as France and the United States
are interested in holding.
The U.S. pays for almost 25
percent of the peacekeeping
department's $7 billion a year
budget.
