    French urged to leave Ivory Coast

    22 December 2010 Last updated at 06:13 ET France has urged its nationals in Ivory Coast to leave, as a crisis over disputed elections continues.

    Government spokesman Francois Baroin said the measure was "precautionary". There are approximately 15,000 French citizens in the West African country.

    UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has warned it could slip into civil war and that incumbent Laurent Gbagbo was trying to expel peacekeepers.

    The international community recognises his rival Alassane Ouattara as victor.
