APA-Pretoria (South Africa) South Africa remains concerned about the prevailing situation in Somalia and its impact on the countries of the East Africa Region, South African Deputy Minister of International Relations and Cooperation Ebrahim I Ebrahim has said here.
Speaking at the High-Level Segment of the International Conference on Reconstruction and Development in Somalia in Turkey on Sunday, Ebrahim said the ongoing clashes in Mogadishu, south and central Somalia, impacted negatively on the ability of the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) to advance socio-economic and political stability in the country.
"We are the same time welcome the recent agreements between the TFG and the Administration of Puntland as well as Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jamaa to strengthen relations among each other.
“We have also noted that the Chairman of Ahlu Sunna Wal Jama’a, Ma’alin Mahmud Shaikh Hassan, declared on May 7 that the Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) agreement with the TFG has collapsed.
"Nonetheless, we still view the outreach and reconciliation process as a crucial step towards an inclusive political process in the country," he said.
He added that South Africa remained convinced that the Djibouti peace process was the only viable option for peace in Somalia, and he appealed to those role-players outside the process to cease all hostilities and join the peace process.
"We also appreciate the efforts in the drafting o the new constitution for Somalia and believe that it would greatly assist to make the political process more inclusive and transparent," the BuaNews Online quoted the deputy minister as saying.

We Are Winning the War on Terrorism in Horn of Africa
The threat is from violent extremists who are a small minority of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, the threat is real. They distort Islam. They kill man, woman and child; Christian and Hindu, Jew and Muslim. They seek to create a repressive caliphate. To defeat this enemy, we must understand who we are fighting against, and what we are fighting for.
