Dette især for at afværge de katastrofale virkninger af en konflikt, der ville gå voldsomt ud over civilbefolkningen, især de svageste grupper, børnene og de ældre, som stadig lider hårdt under virkningerne af den foregående krig.
This is particularly so to avoid the catastrophic effects of a conflict that would force the civilian population into great discomfort, particularly the weaker sections - the children and the elderly - who are still paying harshly for the effects of the previous war.
