President Yusuf: Fikirkaas anigu wax kuma lihi, dowladuna iima sheegin, Ra’iislawasaarahana markii uu iddaacadda ka hadlayey ma aan dhageysan, go’aan dowladu leedahey oo noocaas ahna lama socdo.

President Yusuf: Yaa kallifaya laakiin inay waxaasi dhacaan, oo dagaallo ay dhacaan? Argagixisadaa kallifeysa, dowladdu nina la dirimayso, shacabkana layn mayso ee waxqabadkeedu waxa weeye, wax sharciga, nadaamka iyo danta guud ee soomaaliya ku salaysane, ee dadka argagixisada ah oo shacabka ku dhex dhuumanaya oo laynaya oo in meesha dagaal ka dhaco kallifaya ayaa horta iska leh dambigeeda ee dowladdu ma leh, ciidamada Ethiopiana ma laha, ciidamda Amisom-na ma laha. Wax xalaal ah haddii ay wataan maxay u tilmaami waayeen oo ay u oran waayeen waxa Xamar ka socda waxa kallifaya waa nimanka Shabaab la baxay, maxkamadihii islaamiga ahaa la baxay oo anagu aan argagixiso u naqaan, kuwaasaa shiddada Soomaaliya ka socota wada, kuwaasaa shacabkii iyagoo aan u kala aabo yeelin laynaya, kuwaasaa dilaya qofkii aan la fikrad ahayn oo dhan ama ha ahaado wax garad amaba siyaasi kuwaasi may eedeeyaan.

VOA: kaaliyaha xoghayaha arrimaha dibadda Maraykanka Jendia Frezier waxay sheegtay in dowladda xilli adag ay ku jirto, dadaal wayn aad samayseen, sidii aad mucaaradka ula xiriiri lahaydeen, nabadda aad u soo celin lahaydeen, laakiin haddana dhinaca kale waxay tiri dowladdu waxay samaysaa xiritaan aan loo kala aabbo yeelin, isla markaana waxay cadaadis ku haysaa saxaafadda.

 

President Yusuf: waxaan anigu u aqaan qof soomaaliya saaxiib la ah runtii oo dooneysa in Sooaaliya ay xasisho oo sharafteedii iyo qaran-nimadeedii la soo noqoto, waxaanse hadalkaa oranaya iyadoon aan laga fiirsan baa dadka layska xir xiraa u arkayaa inay tahay wax aan waxba ka jirin.

 

VOA: Dhinaca saxaafadda laakiin madaxweyne waa jiraa caadis ah in idaacado la xiro, marka waa maxay bay kula tahay sababta dhibkaa loo gaysanayo?

 

President Yusuf: Mar kaliya ayaanu billowgii maalin kaliiya la xiray idaacadda la yiraahdo Horn Afrik, ka dibna waa la furay, dib dambana idaacad looma xirin, laakiin idaacaduhu adiga aan ku waydiiyee haddii raadiyayaashu ay dadka ku guubaabiyaan dowladda diida, nbadda diida, shirka qaranka oo socda diida, dadka shacabka ah laaya haddii ay ku guubaabiyaan, adiga maxay kula tahay inaan yeelno.

 

VOA: Madaxweyne goormaa laga yaabaa inaad ka maarantaan joogitaanka ciidamda Ethiopia oo ay dad fara badani ka cabanayaan?

 

President Yusuf: ciidanka Ethiopia dad badan ka carari mayaane, dadka ka cararaya waxa weeye kuwa aan nabadda rabin, Ethiopia cidna wax ma yeelin, dhibaatana uma gaysan, dadka argagixisada kaliya ayaanu hor taagan-nahayoo shacabka Soomaaliyeed taanu rabno inaanu ka saarno dhibka shiddada weeye.

 

VOA: Dhibka ciidamad Ethiopianku ay gaystaan yaa masuul ka ah? Ma iyaga mise adinka?

 

President Yusuf: haddaan Lillaahi kuu sheego, dowladda Ethiopia ciidankeeda waxaa u yeeratay dowladda Soomaaliyeed, labadan dowladoodna ula jeeddadooda waxa weeye inay badbaadiyaan oo xasiliyaan waddankan ela jeeddadu waa intaa uun.

 

VOA: madaxweyne-nimadu waa howl adag, inkastoo aad dadaal fara badan ku soo bixisay, maka daashay bay kula tahay shaqadan hadda, maxaase ku caajis galiya?

 

President Yusuf: Adeer daali mayo anigu, waayo waxaan ogahay waajibka isaaran.

 

 

Waxaa diyaarshay

Somali President Rejects Human Rights Watch Report

 

PRESS RELEASE - Washington, D.C., Aug. 21, 2007 - Abdullahi Yusuf, President of Somalia's Transitional Federal Government (TFG), rejected a recent Human Rights Watch report that accused all parties in the Somali conflict of widespread human rights violations and accused the rights group of perpetuating violence in Somalia.

 

In an exclusive interview with VOA's Somali service today, President Yusuf reacted to the report stating, "It's the insurgence groups that ought to be condemned for human rights violations. The TFG is doing all it can to stabilize Somalia, which is a very difficult thing to do."

 

According to the report, Ethiopian groups who backed the government bombed civilian areas indiscriminately, and the government impeded relief efforts for displaced people. It also states that insurgents placed civilians at great risk by deploying in populated neighborhoods.

 

President Yusuf also rejected remarks by the Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Jendayi Frazer, who on Thursday commended the TFG for its reconciliation attempt, but chided it for curtailing the freedom of the press by closing several media outlets and detaining journalists without charge. "I believe [Frazer] was lied to...we believe we are a democratic state that protects the freedoms of the press," Yusuf said.
