While I read the article Syc posted, I still don't understand something.

If the Ivory Coast is a completely independant nation, why are the French compelled to send troops in? Because IC was a former colony? I didn't read in the article where the president of IC called up the French president and said, "Hey, help us out here." It wasn't even implied. So I'm still confused.
