how to resolve a conflict

The resolution of an army crisis is not easy, and it takes several steps. We are going to take the example of the resolution of the Ivorian crisis. First of all, all parties involved in the fight went to Paris to sign the First agreement which is called “Marcoussis’s agreement.” Nevertheless, this agreement wasn’t accepted by Ivorians, because they thought that the rebels were given all the power, thus there were lot of demonstrations in the street against it. So, they went secondly in Accra, the capital of Ghana, to sign a complementary agreement which was supposed to fix up the first one as it was rejected. Unfortunately this new agreement wasn’t accepted once again by the Ivorians. The United Nations decided then to take care of the Ivorian problem because one of their roles is the prevention of conflicts and the promotion of peace, so they tried to write an agreement called “Resolution 1633,” which was supposed to end the war. This resolution was interpreted by Ivorians as powerful countries wanting to impose their view on the weaker countries, so it was completely rejected even by the parties involved in the fight. Finally, the Ivory Coast president decided to propose a way to resolve the fight. Indeed, he proposed that all parties had to be involved in the resolution. All assailants must be pardoned for their role in introducing war in Ivory Coast, and manufacturing must be developed in the northern part of the country since unemployment in this part was one reason for the different. Because all these solutions proposed by him were attractive to all parties, they were accepted by the opposition, and then the fight was ended and peace was brought to the country. To conclude, we have seen through the Ivorian example that the resolution of an army crisis is not easy, and it can take several steps, and lots of time too.
