Through you Speaker, Deputy President, you said that the UN and the African Union attest to the fact that the right to self- determination is promoted and respected. We all know that more than a year ago, both the UN and France were seen bombing a presidential residence in Cte d'Ivoire. Was that act not an indication that self-determination, in some instances, can be disregarded and that people can be removed at will if it does not suit their purposes?
