New York, April 27, 2016 (SPS) - The Special Envoy of African Union for Western Sahara, Joaquim Chissano, urged the UN Security Council to provide MINURSO with a human rights mandate during his meeting with UN Security Council.
The UN Security Council should provide MINURSO with a human rights mandate, taking into account the need to ensure sustained, independent and impartial monitoring of human rights in both the Territory and the refugee camps, Joaquim Chissano says
It should be recalled that the MINURSO is the unique peacekeeping mission in the world without the mandate of monitoring and reporting human rights.SPS
