La Misión de las Naciones Unidas para la Pacificación en la República Centroafricana y Chad (en inglés: United Nations Mission in the Central African Republic and Chad (MINURCAT)) fué una misión pacificadora dentro del marco de las desiciones del Consejo de Seguridad de las Naciones Unidas llevada a cabo desde el 25 de Septiembre del año 2007 para proveer a la población de dichas naciones una fuerza multidimensional con más de 350 policías y personal militar a la Zona oeste del Chad y la región noreste de Centroafrica[1]

La misión básicamente surgió como una respuesta a los conflictos provocados por la situación de los más de 230,000 refugiados de la región sudsudanesa del Darfur que continuaban emigrando al límite oeste con Chad y a la frontera noreste con la República de África Central. Rebeldes armados provenientes de Sudán dieron contínuamente ataques cerca de la mencionada frontera Sudanesa, poniendo en peligro a los habitantes locales y a los refugiados del Darfur por igual.

Historia[editar]

This followed on from a resolution in July 2007 sending UNAMID into the region[2]​ and a resolution in August 2006 sending UNMIS there,[3]​ the Secretary-General drafted a report outlining the shape of the mission he thought should be sent there,[4]​ as well as received assurance from the European Union of its contribution of troops.[5]

Although the EUFOR Tchad/RCA was originally scheduled to deploy in November 2007, it was delayed until February by a lack of equipment. It reached its Initial Operational Capability on 15 March 2008 and was replaced by UN forces under the same MINURCAT mandate on 15 March 2009. The latest resolution to concern the MINURCAT mandate, Security Council Resolution 1913, extended the stationing of the mission until 15 May 2010 allowing further discussions with the Chadian government which asked for the mandate not be renewed. A further extension was done until the end of 2010.
