Can someone explain to me how a court in Kenya could stop UN deployed troops halfway across the world in Haiti?
High Court Judge Chacha Mwita ruled that, under Kenyan law, the authorities could only deploy officers abroad if a “reciprocal arrangement” was in place with the host government. “Any further action or steps taken by any state organ or state officer in furtherance of such a decision, contravenes the constitution and the law and is therefore unconstitutional, illegal and invalid,” Mwita said.
The Kenyan government had offerred to lead a mission to Haiti but it has been ruled unconstitutional.
