Kofi Annan quits as UN-Arab League envoy
The UN-Arab League joint special envoy to Syria, Kofi Annan has announced he is leaving his post.
| My work here is done, citizens [burp]... |
In a news conference, he said the Syrian people "desperately need action" but criticised the UN Security Council for "finger pointing and name calling".
| That means you, Russia and China... |
Mr Annan authored a six-point road kill peace plan for Syria which was intended to bring an end to the fighting.
But the plan was never fully adhered to by either side
| As in, Pencilneck continued to murder his people, and the people got tired of being murdered so they fought back... |
and the violence has continued to escalate.
| As in, the people are getting good at fighting back... |
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said it was "with deep regret" that he announced Mr Annan would not renew his mandate when it expires at the end of August.
