With its so-called "peacekeeping" military troops facing outrage worldwide for raping children with impunity, the United Nations is launching a major push to expand and further empower its UN "police" force known as UNPOL, The New American website reports today (June 20, 2016).
At the same time, the controversial global organization is working to usurp more influence over national police forces, with the UN bringing together more than 100 national police chiefs this month at its first-ever UN "Chiefs of Police Summit."
Among the UN recommendations is that "the current staffing level of the Police Division needs to be increased in order to align proportionally with the expanded role of police in contemporary peace operations." However, the number of UN police officers has already ballooned from 2,000 in 1999 to more than 13,000 today.
Finally, the UN is calling for the roll-out of a "strategic framework" that envisions UN police serving as a substitute for local police, helping secure elections, and even fighting crime and violent extremism.
