The UN says it fears that followers of the former Ivorian president Laurent Gbagbo could step up attacks from neighboring Liberia. In a report to the Security Council, Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said more cross-border raids are being planned with the help of Liberian mercenaries. RFI discussed the issue with Abdon Bayetto, a spokesman for Gbagbo's party, the Popular Ivorian Front, better known as the FPI, its French acronym.
