    коалицию

    why is коалицию in the accusative?
    thanks

    Разделение страны на два лагеря — сторонников и противников полковника — коалицию, мягко говоря, не устроит.
    Кому - нары, кому - Канары.

    Because it's a direct object:
    Разделение не устроит коалицию.
    subject - predicate - object
    Dividing the country into two camps (colonel's supporters and opponents) won't suit the coalition, to put it mildly.
