United Nations Security Council Resolution 1923 was adopted unanimously on 25 May 2010, after recalling resolutions 1769 (2007), 1778 (2007), 1834 (2008), 1861 (2009), 1913 (2010) and 1922 (2010). The Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Mission in the Central African Republic and Chad (MINURCAT) for a final time until 31 December 2010, with a complete withdrawal by that date.[1]
The withdrawal of MINURCAT came after Chad had asked for it to leave, calling the force a "failure" and declaring it would take over security operations in the region.[2] Amnesty International and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees warned that the withdrawal would endanger thousands of refugees.[3][4]
