Supporters of President Laurent Gbagbo sing during a youth rally in Ivory Coast, Abidjan, Ivory Coast, Monday, Dec. 20, 2010. The top U.N. envoy in Ivory Coast on Monday condemned intimidation tactics against U.N. personnel, saying armed men were threatening staff after the U.N. ignored Laurent Gbagbo's demand for thousands of peacekeepers leave the country. The United Nations has vowed to continue its mission despite the order from Gbagbo, who is facing growing international pressure to concede defeat in last month's disputed presidential election and step aside.
