U.N.: PEACEKEEPERS LIKELY TO REMAIN

PORT-AU-PRINCE -- The U.N. peacekeeping mission in Haiti should be prepared to stay in the troubled country for another 10 years, U.N. envoy to Haiti Juan Gabriel Valdés said Tuesday.

In June, the U.N. Security Council extended the year-old mission's mandate for another eight months. The 7,600-member peacekeeping force has been intensifying efforts to root out politically aligned gangs.
