In view of the uncertain security environment following the disputed Presidential election on 28 November, we recommend against all travel to the Ivory Coast.

On 4 December, an inauguration ceremony was held to install Laurent Gbagbo as President, following the Constitutional Court  judgement on 3 December overturning the conclusions of the Independent Electoral Commission on the second round of the Presidential Elections. We recommend a high degree of vigilance, and to avoid all demonstrations and gatherings.
