Somalia has a friend in Bernard Kouchner: New French Foreign Minister

Recommended Posts

Excellent news that he has been appointed. In this position of French Foreign Minister at this critical time. At the heart of European power. He knows Somalia and the Somalis well. He has visited once, in 1993, where he was photographed carrying food to the people. And he has written on the country to the press.

 

Here is a article he written.

I quote from it. See the similarity with the present situation.

 

''There is no way to solve the Somali issue without the Somalis. For too long, this seems to have escaped the attention of the U.S. military leadership and the United Nations officials there''
