Headline
Council Creates Mbaye Diagne Medal for Exceptional Courage
Caption Description
The Security Council unanimously adopted resolution 2154 (2014), creating the “Captain Mbaye Diagne Medal for Exceptional Courage"" to be awarded to military, police, civilian United Nations and associated personnel who demonstrate exceptional courage, in the face of extreme danger, while fulfilling the mandate of their missions or their functions. The creation of the medal honours the memory of Captain Mbaye Diagne of the UN Assistance Mission for Rwanda (UNAMIR) and of Senegal who saved, unarmed and in the face of extreme danger, hundreds of, perhaps even a thousand, Rwandans from death, during the 1994 genocide in that country.
Addressing the Council, Eugène-Richard Gasana (left), Permanent Representative of the Republic of Rwanda to the UN, voiced hope that the medal would result in soul-searching at the United Nations and help to ensure that the community of nations collectively preserved humanity, guided by moral rules and principles, rather than relying on the brave actions of individuals.
