Press Release
December 15, 2008
Efforts by President Yusuf to remove Prime Minister Nur Hassan Hussein
undermine the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) and efforts to
promote peace and stability. Divisions within the TFG, as manifested by
efforts to remove the Prime Minister, threaten to undermine Djibouti
peace process. We have confidence in the Prime Minister and urge the TFG
leadership to work cooperatively together for the good of all the people
of Somalia. It is important that the Parliament also support efforts to
achieve unity and peace.
We strongly support the Djibouti peace process and welcome efforts by
the Alliance for the Re-liberation of Somalia to cooperate with
representatives of the TFG to advance the work of the High-Level and
Joint Security Committees in Mogadishu. We urge the TFG leadership to
approach its work in the same businesslike manner.
