Description

This is an archival account of the experience of Sudan during the Congo Crisis in its initial phases in 1960-1961. Sudan participated in the United Nations peacekeeping forces in the Congo and in the diplomatic efforts to resolve the problem. Conflicts erupted within the Congo government, fueled by external interests and competition between the poles of the Cold War. After the assassination of Lumumba, the Congo Government became suspicious of the intentions of the peacekeeping forces. The UN Sudanese contingent in peacekeeping came under attack by an overwhelming force of the National Congolese Army. As a result, Sudan withdrew from the peacekeeping mission. This experience became a legacy of the UN peacekeeping missions and presented lessons for future missions. The book is mainly based on United Nations archives and published references. The inclusion of the verbatim minutes of the United Nations Advisory committee was meant to show the diverse opinions of its members as they reviewed the daily developments in the Congo crisis. Also, the correspondence of the Secretary General with the heads of states sheds light on his views on the role of the United Nations in the world as he saw it. Although the book covers events that took place decades ago the relevance of what happened then to today's world is indeed very striking.
