Seeking peace in Somalia: A review of the impact of AMISOM police
The chair began proceedings by
welcoming participants and noting that Somalia was at the time not a
very popular topic for discussion because of events in North and West
Africa. However, he observed that Somalia remains an important
geopolitical and security concern for the East African and Horn of
Africa region and for the broader international community. Efforts to
resolve the conflict in Somalia provide important lessons on how to deal
with some of the ongoing conflicts in North Africa and the Middle East.
