'A Marriage of Inconvenience: The US and the UN'
Hosts: Ray Suarez, Garrick Utley, Margaret Warner, Marvin Kalb, Steve Roberts

On this edition of America Abroad, we explore the tumultuous relationship between the US and the UN and examine instances of cooperation and conflict. We'll travel to Sudan to better understand how and why America is working with the UN to support a peacekeeping force in the war-torn region of Darfur; and to Geneva, to examine the first year of the UN's Human Rights Council and find out why the US decided not to seek a Council seat. We'll look back at the highs and lows of America's 62-year history with the UN, and we'll hear from top American policymakers about the importance of the United Nations' authorization resolution authorizing of the Gulf War.
