In an interview on Wednesday with french television network I-Tele, former rebel leader and Ouattara’s chosen Prime Minister Guillaume Soro said, « It is obvious the only solution to the crisis is the use of force. »
Calling upon the support of the international community Soro said, « I ask the U.N. Security Council, European Union and ECOWAS to consider the use of force. » He also stated that, « Mr Gbgabo has got the tanks out … 200 people have fallen under the bullets of Liberian and Angolan mercenaries … the security situation is very worrying. »
