The United States is leading partners in celebrating Somalia’s political pact before the election

WASHINGTON, USA – The United States has described the latest election pact in Somalia as “on time” just hours after the political leadership signed the agreement, which would ensure that the country holds elections within the next two months, in addition to conducting a number of local issues.

Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble led the law when they signed the deal on Thursday, in a function attended by President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo, former Presidents Sharif Sheikh Ahmed and Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, five heads of state, Banadir Governor Omar Filish and a host of international partners.

Farmajo’s term expired on February 8 and his decision to extend it was strongly rejected by a number of stakeholders. He appointed Mohamed Hussein Roble to lead the reconciliation process in the country, a move that seemed to bear fruit.

And Washington has praised the landmark agreement but asked management to carry out the deal for the sake of prosperity. The State Department praised Roble in particular for showing extraordinary leadership in the negotiation process.

“We commend Prime Minister Roble’s efforts and urge Somalia’s leaders to maintain the spirit of cooperation and compromise demonstrated during this week’s negotiations,” the United States said in a statement.

“We encourage them to move swiftly to implement the agreement, as it is very important for Somalia to end a peaceful, inclusive and transparent electoral process as soon as possible in order to continue on its path to peace and prosperity. We look forward to continuing our support for that process. “

Those who have since praised the landmark agreement include the United Kingdom, Norway, Denmark, the UN, the European Union. The European Union also called for swift implementation of the deal to avoid further downturns.

“In this regard, we welcome Prime Minister Robles’ efforts to pursue constructive deliberations between the federal and regional leaderships. Elections should be held without delay,” said the EU, a major financial partner for Somalia.

“In the next step of the process, it is important that all parties continue the constructive commitment and refrain from violence or other acts that trace the process. The EU is ready to continue our support,” it added.

Council presidential candidates also welcomed the election treaty signed on Thursday in the Afisioni tent. In a video excerpt, CPS spokesman Dahir Gelle expressed the Council’s optimism about the agreed points and their implementation.

The outgoing president also said: “My role from now on is to assist in the implementation of this agreement.” Farmajo had initially distanced itself from the election campaign, arguing that Northeastern State and Jubaland were responsible, but the two states accused the federal government of complacency.
