US Defense Sec Gen Mattis: Somalia now has a Pres the US can work with

[Voltage]

He says the US is now confident that in Farmaajo they have a partner they can trust and work with and will give any support he asks for

Mattis said Somalia has an economic and a governmental program to put it back on its feet, and that international support is crucial to the process.

“So, we were working on how the future looks and what nations could commit what to what and get the framework right,” Mattis said. “It includes on the security side both a continued maturation of their security forces in the defenses against al-Shabaab, but it also includes a reconciliation program designed to pull the fence-sitters and the middle-of-the-roaders away from al-Shabaab. It's very well put together.”

The holistic approach to the situation in Somalia is the one that has a chance of succeeding, Mattis said.

“There is certainly an attitude of renewed hope based on the election of what appears to be a very good leader in terms of understanding the need for military security, but as well economic efforts, and certainly reconciliation is going to have to mark this way forward, as well,” he said.

Defense Secretary Gen Mattis says the US will give Somalia anything it needs, including weapons and large training force if the Somali government asks.

He says the US has already started preparing a kit to arm the building of Somali forces

"We'll probably also do the continued equipping of the Somali army as they stand it up," he said. "In other words, not just to the [African peacekeeping] force, but continue to provide the basic kit that light infantry needs to go into the field.

"I honestly don't know how what the specifics are," he added. "I know we're going to provide a kit to them."

Voltage, will we see you act like this 4 years later, when a non-Mareexaan individual is selected as the next "president" of Somalia?

Of course the US can work with Farmaajo he is a US citizen. It's Farmaajo's Patriotic Duty as an American to comply.

Hawiye should all be pissed of this. Them Daroods are going to exterminate you with the help of US. Farmajo told Gen. Mattis that all al-shabab terrorists hail from the hawiye clan. Remember what p/land did when they called in American bombers in Galmudug?

A Dooro legally rules you. A Dooro is the one you've been crying after for 26 years to join your enclave, while simultaneously crying about a Dooro massacring you, when you were the one massacring others.
