The government of disputed President Laurent Gbagbo has banned UN and French peacekeeping aircraft from flying over, or landing in Ivory Coast. 象牙海岸争议总统洛朗·巴博领导的政府禁止联合国和法国的维和飞机飞越或者降落。 The UN monitored the long-delayed presidential elections intended to reunify the country He said an African Union (AU) panel, charged with finding a solution, confirmed he had won the disputed poll. Mr Gbagbo has refused to attend the summit in Addis Ababa. Speaking from the Ethiopian capital Mr Ouattara said: "The panel confirmed that I am the president-elect of the Ivorian people. It's the final decision and there's no way to go back on that". A team of five African heads of state had proposed a government of national unity2 to resolve the political impasse3(僵局,死路) amid warnings the country is sliding back into civil war. Last year's long-delayed elections had been supposed to reunify the country - once the richest in West Africa - which has been divided since a 2002 civil war. The UN-backed electoral commission says Mr Ouattara won presidential elections in November, but the Constitutional Council overruled(否决,统治) it, citing rigging in the north, where pro-Ouattara forces are in control. "We think this is an unacceptable proposal," said former Prime Minister Pascal Affi N'Guessan, who heads Mr Gbagbo's Ivorian Popular Front and is part of his delegation4 in the Ethiopian capital. The BBC's John James in the main city of Abidjan says the flight ban may be an attempt to stop Mr Ouattara from returning to Ivory Coast. The no-fly zone will not stop him but it will make it more difficult for him to get to Abidjan and the Golf Hotel, where he has been under the protection of UN peacekeepers, he says. It is the first time Mr Ouattara has left the hotel since the results were declared in December. The statement read out on state television said "exceptional overflights or landings must be previously5 authorised by the transport ministry6". 点击收听单词发音
