Annan Opens Mediation Efforts in Kenya

HeadlineJan 30, 2008

In Kenya, former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan has launched a new mediation effort to resolve Kenya’s ongoing post-election crisis. More than 900 people have been killed in the aftermath of a disputed election last month.

Kofi Annan: “We are confident that the issues can be resolved within a year and the immediate political issues be resolved — what we are describing as short-term issues be resolved within four weeks.”

At least a dozen people were killed Tuesday following the assassination of a parliament member with the opposition Orange Democratic Movement.
