Le Déshonneur des casques bleus

Blue Helmets - Peace and Dishonor

They wear the blue helmets of hope. They arrive in countries where bloody conflicts have devastated the populations. They are made up of all nationalities, armed representatives of nations that are members of the UN. Their role is to separate the belligerents and protect the civilian populations. At least, that is their mandate. But for some time now, many observers have been wondering: What if the Blue Helmets are part of the problem rather than the solution?
Brutality, abuse, rape of minors—the accusations accumulate from Kosovo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Haiti. How can the victims obtain justice from this international military force that is supposed to be protecting them?
