United Nations, New York, 29 October 2009 - Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said today he will ask Member States to expedite measures to strengthen security to respond to the dramatically escalated threat against the United Nations, as witnessed by the deadly attack yesterday in Kabul, Afghanistan, that killed five UN staff and injured several others.

Increasingly, the UN is being targeted, in this case precisely because of our support for the Afghan elections, Mr. Ban told reporters after a closed-door meeting with the Security Council.
