U.N. Military Set To Pull Out From Somalia

U.N. Military Set To Pull Out From Somalia

A special United Nations Security Council mission, led by New Zealand Ambassador Colin Keating, visited Mogadishu recently to find out whether the United Nations military component, UNOSOM, should continue. Efforts at political reconciliation among the Somali warring factions have proved disappointing. Ambassador Keating found little support for UNOSOM's continued presence. The Security Council, therefore, voted to wind up UNOSOM's three million dollar a day operation in March 1995.
