The PM articulated Ethiopia 's position regarding the actions of the Union of Islamic Courts, including the recent capture of the strategic South Somalia port city of Kismayu by the UIC militia.
Meles Speaks Q- The Prime Minister of Somalia has said that if Baidowa is invaded, Ethiopia and Kenya will come in support of the transitional government...
PM Meles - The recent occupation of Kismayu by the Union of Islamic Court contradicts the agreement that has been signed in Khartoum . The pattern of behavior that appears in the recent months whereby the Islamic courts signed cease fire agreements and as soon as they were able to they went to expand their area of control. If this process continues in this manner, it would not be good for the peace process.
