Junta: Guinea-Bissau will ‘defend itself’

[iolsa]

Bissau -  

Guinea-Bissau's junta said Friday it would not accept the presence of United Nations troops in the country, after calls for a  peace force to bring down the military rulers.

"Guinea-Bissau will not accept an intervention force because the  situation does not require it. If a force is sent, the country will  defend its territorial integrity," Lieutenant-Colonel Daba Na Walna told journalists. - Sapa-AFP
