u.n. mission some countries are now planning to pull out just tell us why that is. well officially the dutch and the canadians the canadians were scheduled to leave at the end of july and then president and move the un security council to oust them to extend their mission but they're not going to do that the dutch you know had a series of missteps that involved like three dutch soldiers dying most you do with their own equipment and there was an investigation put in place and that resulted in the dutch defense minister resigning but was clear at least for the canadians this is an election year for justin trudeau who is running for reelection in october and it's unclear for a lot of canadians why they're putting so many canadian lives that risk in this mission in mali donaldson's of miles away from canada that's a question that a lot of people in from western nations are asking themselves how is the security of mali contingent on the security at home of course the europeans is is a little bit more obvious where we are is a major trafficking route for for arms for dru

u.n. fact finding missions as appropriate and very relevant in terms of investigations that is a good piece of news because it then puts rate as a rule crime at the same level of all the war crimes which do have fact finding missions on the ground we've also heard from the foreign minister a german foreign minister. who said that there will be sanctions for the perpetrators without outlining what form they will take but that certainly does china with the rallying call that we heard from the human rights lawyer amal clooney speaking in new york that prosecution is needed this is the only way to stamp this out and understand that the united states the trumpet biggest region had problems with the text because of the wording reproductive health but it was a bone but the use of abortion. is abortion the reason we've got this toothless tiger of a resolution no. that's right brant the u.n. mission essentially felt that sexual and reproductive health was a tacit endorsement of abortion incest and the this increasingly hardline stance from the trump administration is something we've seen across the

u.n. mission in ukraine so that no one is really playing being biased i think there has been there's a tradition in u.n. peace operations not to engage troops off states that have a direct stake even in a crisis or in a conflict and this would certainly also apply here. so you would have to focus on the number of states that are. not. directly stakeholders off the crisis i think again depending on the size of such an operation. would be doable. not there yet the first i think of you need to come to a much more common understanding. of the scope of such an operation and then i think the next question. then b. who would contribute troops but no matter the scope of the peacekeeping mission it will have to be decided by the security council that this do you think that at this point security council is getting more involved in the whole affair. with this option of a peace operation that yes. at the same time i think it would be wise to keep you always closely involved. for obvious reasons the been working in this context for the last five years. you have a lot to offer basically you have all civilian

u.n. mission yesterday morning first day when the event started and he was telling him that the u.n. has the responsibility to protect the civilians in libya and he told the world let's wait because we are what we might have in front of us that have to has some deals with people inside tripoli and he might take over so we have to wait so this was the point you know i have to introduce himself to the work that he can bring stability so many you know all parts of the world they thought ok let's let's see what's going to happen but the primary factor is the resistance he faced in tripoli and people they came together to protect their right to have a civil state and not to have a new dictator after gadhafi and here we see the change in the international committee then to national committee is not the independent variable it's a dependent variable it's valuable that goes after the events in tripoli and we will see more and more you know move away from have the more resistance we have in tripoli which is going well up to now how far do you think have tars willing to take this. john i have

u.n. fact-finding mission and you mentioned a very important rd to this conversation which is "genocide." that's a legal determination that has to be made. has the u.s. made the same determination. at would change if they were to? >> the u.s. has the state department carried out a very thorough investigation which outlaid all the atrocities thate appened, and largely echoed the fact-finding mission, but they fell short of making a determination of whether crimes against humanity or genocide happened. and that's important because you dmake thermination, and then there's requisite action that should me along with it. and that's what we haven't seen, and what we need to see is a coordinated global strategy towards this. and so we would lov to see an actual determination and these steps taken, a presidential envoy appointed to go after this. i mean, i think it'ling that the president of the united states has not yet directly addressed what's happened to the ivhingya. >> nawaz: dan su, of refugees international, thanks it's a pleasure. here. >> woodruff: with the nation's capital city still re

wait if the if he's going to resist me to move to resistance and some of the missions with the sides ok now as you mentioned the u.n. secretary general good tradition was in tripoli as he was being treated i'm leaving with a heavy heart and deeply concerned so how much of a setback would it be if this internationally recognized government want to be dislodged it's a tremendous setback for the international community to have to keep in mind that under u.n. supervision there was already a national conference scheduled for mid april in which political reconciliation or both should be established and you know actual unity government should be established and this is off the table and we're back to it's back to zero. given all the efforts of the international community all the united nations of france for the european union and the international mediator so what would be the kind of blind implications if this u.n. backed government does for basically where libya is expected to slide back into civil war situation we have between twenty and have been twenty fourteen but bush continued more or less since then and therefore
