Why are we surprised.
Foreign troops in Somalia for the past 10 years who don’t do they’re job.
Stop the FGS from building an army.
= prolong the instability of Somalia.
Why is it, that Afghanistan is not under an arms embargo even though they’ve been in war for the past 40 years and the Taliban is under more control than ever before?
"for maritime interdiction of illicit arms imports and charcoal exports, and the humanitarian exemption."Security Council maintains partial lifting of arms embargo on Somalia for one year...

this is such bullshit, they will never lift that ban because they want us to stay weak. If i am not wrong the confernce that took place in London this May was supposed to address the security issues but could not even lift the ban. How do they want us to rebuild the SNA and defeat AS if we still have the same equipment since the 1970's.
Britain/US want amisom to stay, if we bypass this ban we couldve destroyed AS a long time ago.
This is a real setback, a major part of farmaajos election was security. They should have done everything to prevent this ban from existing. Now we will need to rely on foreign goverments/troops for even longer.
