(Reuters) - African leaders decided on Monday to immediately establish a military rapid reaction force to deal with regional security emergencies, in a move to reduce the continent's reliance on outside forces and funds for its defence.
The move made at an African Union summit in Addis Ababa followed calls from several leaders for an African defence capacity to be created right away, given the new threats in a number of countries.
