Speeches of incentive to violence would be diffused by
national television. According to UN sources, the RTI
would diffuse speeches which encourage the population
to rebel against the ONUCI.
The accusations were levelled by the UN peacekeeping chief
Alain Le Roy who blamed an attack on a UN convoy, in which
a soldier was injured with a machete, on the broadcaster:
Incumbent President Laurent Gbagbo has accused the UN
of meddling in his country’s internal politics,
It has defied Gbagbo’s order to leave the country,
instead extending the mandate for its 10,000 strong force
for another six months.
An ambassador of Alassane Ouattara estimates that the
country is at the edge of genocide.
