 Mogadishu, April 24, 2009 – A hardline opposition leader accused of al-Qaida links has ruled out peace talks with the government unless African Union peacekeepers leave Somalia.
Sheik Hassan Dahir Aweys returned to the Somali capital this week for the first time since 2006. He says the peacekeepers should leave Somalia or face attacks.
Swathed in all-white traditional Islamic clothing and wearing a white skull cap, Aweys was speaking to hundreds of his supporters Friday.
Aweys has been designated a terrorist by the United Nations, which he denies. Aweys had been based in the Eritrean capital, Asmara, for almost two years.
