Thanks Sidi. I know the UN is not withdrawing it's entire CI staff, only
non-essential ones as you said in your previous post. What I was inferring
in my post is that this is not a good sign, and if things get worse, it may
lead to these organizations withdrawing essential staff with chaos to follow.
Happy Tobaski in advance.
