His Government said that if we left the construction site, we would be heard. We went out peacefully-and prevent you from spending a lot of shame in taking the force here. Even so, we have not been met. The Government has not received us. We call by Minister Gilberto Carvalho and it didn’t come.

Peacekeepers not Informed about Depleted Uranium in South Iraq (tags)
As the UN-backed ‘stabilisation force’ in Iraq (SFIR) is taking shape, peacekeepers are not well informed about the risks of DU contamination, since the US government refuses to disclose information on DU firing locations.
