SECURITY COUNCIL ESTABLISHES UNITED NATIONS ASSISTANCE MISSION IN SOMALIA,
 
TO BE OPERATIONAL BY 3 JUNE FOR INITIAL PERIOD OF 12 MONTHS
 

Unanimously Adopts Resolution 2102 (2013)

Acting on the recommendations of United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, the Security Council today decided to establish the United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM) by 3 June for an initial period of 12 months, providing the United Nations “good offices” functions — and a range of strategic policy advice — in support of the Federal Government’s peace and reconciliation process.

Unanimously adopting resolution 2102 (2013), the Council decided that the mandate of UNSOM — which it intended to renew as appropriate — would include the provision of policy advice to the Federal Government and the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) on peacebuilding and state-building in the areas of:  governance, security sector reform and rule of law (including the disengagement of combatants), development of a federal system (including preparations for elections in 2016), and coordination of international donor support.

Among its other mandated functions, UMSOM would help build the Federal Government’s capacity to promote respect for human rights and women’s empowerment, promote child protection, prevent conflict-related sexual and gender-based violence, and strengthen justice institutions.  Further, it would monitor, help investigate and report to the Council on any abuses or violations of human rights or of international humanitarian law committed in Somalia, or any abuses committed against children or women.

In such work, the Council underlined the importance of Somali ownership, requesting the Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Nicholas Kay, to align closely United Nations country team activities with the priorities of UNSOM and the Federal Government, as well as AMISOM, the Intergovernmental Authority for Development (IGAD), the European Union and other regional, bilateral and multilateral partners.

By other terms, the Council decided that UNSOM would be based in Mogadishu and deployed across Somalia, as requested by the Federal Government and as conditions permitted, in line with arrangements set out by the Secretary-General in his 19 April letter to the Council (document S/2013/239).  Further, it recalled provisions in resolution 2093 (2013) in relation to UNSOM as a structurally integrated United Nations mission, welcoming the proposed leadership and coordination structures, with a clear delineation of duties.

For his part, the Secretary-General was requested to keep the Council regularly informed of the implementation of UNSOM’s mandate, including steps he was taking to ensure the presence of a structurally integrated mission by 1 January 2014, as well as an assessment on the political and security implications of wider United Nations deployments across Somalia, with a first report to be delivered no later than 2 September 2013 and every 90 days thereafter.

In his 19 April letter, the Secretary-General transmitted the results of a technical assessment mission to Somalia, deployed from 17 to 29 March.  He notes that the team conducted its work on the basis of resolution 2093 (2013), adopted on 6 March, by which the Council defined a new United Nations presence in Somalia, guided by the Secretary-General’s Strategic Review of the situation.  It agreed that the United Nations Political Office for Somalia (UNPOS) should be replaced by a new special political mission as soon as possible.

Throughout its encounters, the mission had heard strong support for a United Nations mandate in all areas identified by resolution 2093 (2013), according to the letter.  The team found the political environment to be extremely complex, but with “impressive” capacities for peace and dialogue, thanks to the strong political will of the Federal Government to rebuild the country.  International commitment was critical to ensuring an enabling security environment.

Those findings depicted an environment in which a new United Nations mission could “do much good”, the letter states.  The team’s “mission concept” outlined an approach for providing mandated activities, guided by the principles of Somali national ownership, flexibility, and collaboration and partnerships.  The letter outlines the core substantive functions of the new mission in the areas of:  political affairs and mediation; rule of law and security institutions; and human rights and protection, as well as a role for multidisciplinary task teams to ensure coherence between the United Nations country team and the mission.

After action, Elmi Ahmed Duale ( Somalia) expressed his full appreciation for the adoption of an “important” resolution, which would support and facilitate his Government in achieving its development, governance and security goals.  The resolution also ensured that there was only “one door” to knock on, as opposed to fragmented approaches, in coordinating assistance.  Indeed, today’s action was a “first step” towards more effective Council support.

Against that backdrop, he called on all partners to abide by the principles of Somali sovereignty and ownership when extending support for the development of a Somali future, adding that regional authorities should also be consulted.  Welcoming the emphasis on coordination and urgent action, he underlined the need for human and financial resources to help Somalia implement its mandate, drawing attention to the 7 May donor conference in London.  “This year will be an opening of opportunities for Somalia’s development,” he declared.

By God this is permenant political defense against Nairobi amd Addis Ababa influence. If you read carefully the donors have also started to take political ownership over AMISOM'S pooitical objects from the countries it came from.

I think the world is fully serious now they want to engage one strong government for Somalia. It basically signals the end of "containment" which took place aftr UN moved out in 1994. Containment allowed Somalia's politics to be left to the region and regional and neigh oring countries were allowed a lot of space to do what they wanted as long as they kept inside of Somalia and the region. The donors turned blind eye to this to escape the headache of dealing with Somalia. Piracy and Al Shabaab and its influence world wide begin the ending of containment. Many things and Somalia's imminent rise back seem to have totally destroyed containment. With that lessons the power of regional African countries in Somalia and more the world's direct dealing and empowering Somalia's state mechanisms.

This came at a great time especially with Kenya's war criminal accused leader. This a great thing for Somalia. When Somalia's influence is shared around the world it directly challenges and lessons the influence from regional governments with local domestic goals.

Great developmemt!

This is the only way to get rid of addis, nairobi and kampala. Within this year many things will change before that we can't do shyt. Most guys here don't understand the international law/al qanun al-dawli. We are simply begging these countries because they are covering and acting in the name of our security and stability not because they have rights in our land.

A story from the Bible:

And Rab-shakeh said unto them, Speak you now to Hezekiah (King of Judah), Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this in which you trust? You say, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom do you trust, that you rebel against me? Now, behold, you trust upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust in him.

Anyone who puts his trust in the UN must either be smoking horse manure or must be very naive. The UN is not providing the troops. And the UN rarely succeeds anywhere (look at Congo Kinshasa.) The West will throw it's principles under the bus anytime it's interests are at stake.

The guys had to change a whole set of UN guidelines just to accommodate UhuRuto
See this:

United Nations officials may interact “without restrictions” with individuals summoned to appear before the ICC, according to a new set of the organisation’s guidelines.

Last year, some people here were saying that they are happy that the west has refused to extend the AMISOM mandate by beyond march March. I told them they were naive - where are they now? AMISOM mandate has been extended to Next year. By that time, we'll have studied the whole place thoroughly, and "fixed" our puppets at the SNA.
