Rice comments on UN activities in Lebanon
The New York Times reported Tuesday that Condoleezza Rice called for U.N. peacekeeping forces to enforce the "very robust" mandate authorized by the organization. The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) has said the mandate places Lebanese sovereignty paramount, and Unifil says it will not take action without authorization from the Lebanese army. Rice said the difference between her own stance and Unifil's is a problem of interpretation.
