The article discusses the response of Vijay Nambiar, United Nation's (UNs) secretary general's chief of staff, on the attacks of Thabo Mbeki on the UN's role in the conflict in Côte d'Ivoire. It mentions the Côte d'Ivoire's 2010 presidential election which had been postponed several times and gave Laurent Gbagbo victory. It also notes the post-election violence as a result of Gbagbo's refusal to accept defeat and rejection to find peaceful solution.
