Ivory Coast: Gbagbo-controlled TV “inciting UN hate”..he has to incite it?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-12091043
The UN has accused Ivory Coast state media – controlled by strongman Laurent Gbagbo – of inciting hatred against foreign peacekeepers.
UN peacekeeping chief Alain Le Roy said state TV channel RTI was pumping out lies, and blamed it for a machete attack on UN personnel on Tuesday.
Mr Gbagbo has so far resisted UN calls to step down as president and make way for his rival Alassane Ouattara.
Regional leaders are holdings talks aimed at breaking the impasse.
The presidents of Benin, Sierra Leone and Cape Verde, sent by regional bloc Ecowas, came away on Wednesday without a deal.
Ecowas, which had threatened in a statement to send in troops to force Mr Gbagbo to step down, said the three men would return to the country on 3 January for more talks.
