EU force prioritises stabilisation of regions in CAR

The recently deployed EU peacekeeping force in Central African Republic set restoring regional stability as its top priority, reports Reuters.
“The objective that we are looking for, and which I think we share with most of the international community, is to make it so each citizen of Central African Republic, whatever their communal background, can see a positive future,” said the EU force commander, Philippe Ponties at a news conference in CAR yesterday.
Over 12,000 troops were deployed by the EU in to the CAR last month.
