The Government of Uganda warned the international community that the withdrawal of the Uganda People's Defence Force (UPDF) without deployment of adequate United Nations forces would create a security vacuum that would lead to flares of the Lendu-Hema conflict, which had been contained by UPDF.
Le Gouvernement ougandais a prévenu la communauté internationale que le retrait des Forces armées ougandaises (UPDF), sans déploiement de forces suffisantes des Nations Unies, créerait un vide sécuritaire qui conduirait à attiser le conflit entre les Lendus et les Hemas, que les UPDF avaient pu contenir.
