NEW UN ENVOY HAILS SOMALILAND AS 'ISLAND OF RELATIVE PEACE AND
STABILITY' BUT REAL IS SOMALIA IN INSECURE REGIONNew York, Jun 13 2013
8:00PMThe new United Nations envoy for Somalia arrived today in
Somaliland, which he said has remained "an island of relative peace
and stability" and could provide lessons for peace consolidation
throughout the wider region.

"We are…here to learn and to support initiatives that will lead to
sustainable peace, stability and prosperity in Somalia and beyond,"
said Nicholas Kay, head of the new UN Assistance Mission in Somalia
(UNSOM) as he arrived in Hargeisa, Somaliland this morning.

In his first visit to the region since assuming his duties as head of
the Mission on 3 June, he met with President Ahmed Mahamed Mohamud
(Silaanyo) and officials of the Somaliland Administration.

He was received by Dr. Mohamed Abdillahi Omar, Minister of Foreign
Affairs and International Relations, who accompanied Mr. Kay to the
mass graves in Hargeisa, in commemoration of the worst human rights
violations of the Siyad Barre regime, which occurred between 1984 and
1988.

On his arrival, he said: "I have come to Hargeisa early in my new
assignment in order to make it clear to the authorities and people of
Somaliland that the United Nations supports their aspirations for
peace and prosperity."

"Somaliland has remained an island of relative peace and stability in
an insecure region and we believe that there are lessons that can be
learned here about stabilizing the whole region," he continued, noting
Somaliland's efforts to strengthen democratic institutions and to
entrench democracy through holding periodic elections.

"We are also aware of the challenges that Somaliland faces in
institutionalizing a formal system of justice alongside the
traditional one and we look forward to working together to reinforce
the rule of law," Mr. Kay said, stressing that the Mission stood ready
to support constructive engagement between Somalia and Somaliland.

Noting that this was the first of many visits to Somaliland and that
he intends to have a close and fruitful relationship with its people
and authorities of the region, he said the UNSOM office in Hargeisa
will be proactively engaging the administration and civil society to
explore areas of further cooperation.

The mandate of UNSOM is to support the building of national capacity,
peacebuilding, with a focus on good governance, security sector
reform, rule of law, human rights, providing "good offices" for
mediation and political reconciliation and coordination of
international assistance.

Meanwhile, the Security Council was briefed this afternoon by
Assistant Secretary-General Tayé-Brooke Zerihoun on the situation in
the Juba regions of Somalia.

Following those closed door talks, Mark Lyall Grant of the United
Kingdom, which holds the Council's presidency for the month, read out
a statement expressing Council members' concern at the deterioration
in the security situation in the Juba regions, particularly in
Kismayo, and at the resulting impact on the civilian population and
the humanitarian situation.

"The Members of the Security Council called on all parties to refrain
from any action which may threaten peace and stability in the Juba
regions and to engage with the Federal Government of Somalia in a
constructive manner to achieve a peaceful resolution to the current
crisis and to alleviate the dire humanitarian situation," he said.

Further, Council members underlined their support for the development
of an effective federal system of Government, in line with the
Provisional Constitution and in respect of the sovereignty and
territorial integrity of Somalia, in order to ensure a constructive
and sincere partnership between the Somali Government and local and
regional administrations.

"The members of the Security Council welcomed the commitment of the
Federal Government of Somalia to lead reconciliation efforts in the
Juba regions with the support of UNSOM, IGAD [Intergovernmental
Authority on Development] and other appropriate actors," he said,
adding that Council members urged that this be taken forward
expeditiously.

Security Council members underlined the availability of the Special
Representative of the Secretary-General to assist the Government of
Somalia in peacefully resolving the situation.

They also underlined the importance of the issues in the Juba regions
not distracting from the urgent need to end the threat posed by
Al-Shabaab and bring, security and prosperity to the Somali people,
the overwhelming majority of whom are committed to peace through
dialogue.

"In that context, the members of the Council underscored their support
for AMISOM [African Union Mission in Somalia] and reiterated their
willingness to take action against those who undermine the peace and
reconciliation process in Somalia," the Council president concluded
yet since March 3rd 1995 Mogadishu has no functioning central
Government in such The United Nation is a process of foreward
peacekeeping forces to settle such upcoming August 22 attempt by Kenya
to attempt takeover in such attempt shall be STOP.Jun 13 2013 8:00PM
