Press Release: UN Security Council Must Reconsider its Stance

 

By Ministry of Foreign AffairsMay 14, 2009, 13:36

 

*The United Nations Security Council continues to doggedly condone ephemeral trends in Somalia as given and legitimate; and, to endorse illicit and externally imposed "transitional governments" that do not represent neighborhoods in Mogadiscio let alone the entire Somali people. The UN Security Council has further condoned acts of external invasion against Somalia. It is clear that these misguided positions contravene the independence, sovereignty as well as unity of Somalia and constitute a grave breach of the Charter of the United Nations and international law., *

 

These illegal and unconstructive positions of the Security Council have exacerbated the political vacuum that has enveloped Somalia; aggravated piracy and lawlessness; and, compounded the suffering of the Somali people. These acts have further accentuated the prevalent instability in the Horn of Africa., *

 

In the event, the Government of Eritrea urges the UN Security Council to take remedial action by taking stock of these violations and the deleterious consequences that they have entailed., * , *
