Socialist International
Women, taking into account that:
- since September
2002 Côte d'Ivoire has been facing an illegal occupation
of its northern and western regions by rebel forces, dividing
the country in two;
- this worrying situation
is necessarily having pernicious repercussions on the living
conditions of women, children and the elderly;
- commendable efforts
have been made by Socialist International Women and the Socialist
International through their Africa Committee to support the
Ivorian people and to restore peace to the country;
expresses
its solidarity with the women of Côte d'Ivoire and calls
on the sense of responsibility of all active forces in
the country to restore the rule of law and a sustainable peace
in Côte d'Ivoire.
