UN chief 'disturbed' by civilian deaths in Sri Lanka
2006-11-13
UN chief Kofi Annan is “increasingly disturbed” by the mounting civilian casualties in fighting between the Sri Lankan government and its Tamil rebel foes, his spokesman said Friday.
The secretary general is increasingly disturbed by the mounting loss of life.
“The secretary general is increasingly disturbed by the mounting loss of life” in Sri Lanka, spokesman Stephane Dujarric said in a statement. “He deplores the many civilian casualties by the ongoing hostilities” between government forces and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). Annan stressed the “urgent need to bring an end to the spiral of violence and called on the parties “to make every effort to return to the peace process as soon as possible.”

#4  It must have disturbed his after lunch nap.

So long as his morning nap was left untouched, he'll be able to struggle through the evening's dinner party, so that's ok.
