忏悔录

A | LAGOS, Nigeria -- The United Nations said it will repatriate nine peacekeepers from a South African contingent in eastern Congo who were accused of sexual assault and other abuse.The U.N. decided to immediately repatriate the peacekeepers and a senior officer of the South African army “due to the seriousness of the allegations against them,” the organization said in a statement on Friday. The senior officer allegedly tried to hinder a probe into the allegations and threatened other peacekeepers. Two other indicted senior officers will also be replaced, the U.N. said. More than 12,000 U.N. peacekeepers are deployed in eastern Congo, where more than 100 armed groups are active. The U.N. said its preliminary assessment found that the nine peacekeepers were “fraternizing after curfew hours” in prohibited bars where prostitution takes place. The soldiers were also alleged to have assaulted staff of the peacekeeping mission and the military police who were trying to arrest them, the statement added.South African authorities have indicated their “full cooperation, in particular through the deployment of a national investigator,” the U.N. said, promising that victims would be assisted and that the peacekeeping mission would remain committed to upholding U.N. standards.Such accusations of sexual abuse by U.N. peacekeepers are not new in various parts of the world, from Congo to Haiti where peacekeepers are deployed. The victims in many instances are children.The abuses are particularly rampant in Congo, which accounted for one-third of the nearly 2,000 sexual abuse and exploitation complaints made against the U.N. worldwide in 2017. The U.N. has also been accused of not doing enough in handling such allegations. Last year, Secretary-General António Guterres said the organization has "not succeeded in all respects, but neither have we stood still” in handling the sexual abuse crisis.。　　北京8月17日电（记者赵怡宁）记者17日从国家市场监督管理总局了解到，“十四五”时期，市场监管部门部署开展滥用行政权力排除、限制竞争执法相关专项行动，依法查处案件290件，促进优化营商环境，服务全国统一大市场建设。　　据了解，“十四五”时期，市场监管部门执法力度持续加大，年均办结案件提升至58件，涵盖城市管理、招标采购、工程建筑、交通运输等多个领域。其中，市场监管总局会同有关地方市场监管部门调查处理六省（区）实施不合理信用评价排斥限制外地经营者参加招标投标问题，依法办结四省对外地ETC卡实行高速公路通行歧视性收费案件，督促竞争问题整改到位，促进要素资源在全国范围内畅通流动。　　据市场监管总局相关负责人介绍，“十五五”时期，市场监管部门将以有力执法办案破除卡点堵点，以典型问题纠治强化警示震慑，以制度机制创新提升治理效能，着力营造稳定公平透明可预期的市场环境，为构建全国统一大市场和推动高质量发展提供坚实支撑。
