Djibouti: The Somali re-liberation alliance boycotts convention        

Mogadishu Wednesday, September 17 2008 SMC 

The Somali re-liberation alliance the Djibouti party has apparently boycotted a meeting which was due to take between them and the Somali transitional federal government at Sheraton hotel in the Djiboutian capital Djibouti on Wednesday.

The representatives of the Somali transitional federal government flanked by members of the international Somali contact group were present at the meeting hall in Sheraton hotel eagerly waiting for the other side, but the other side did not turned up.

Some close reports from the SRA says that the main objective behind their rejection to the peace process is that the government of Addis Ababa is a member of the international contact group and has some representatives in the conferences hall, while it has forces which have invaded in the country in an official system.

The Ethiopian ambassador to Djibouti was in the well organized hall which the three sides were preparing to finalize the scuffle in the war strife country Somalia, but the presences of the ambassador was mostly the motive behind the recoil of the Somali re-liberation alliance.

This is not the first time such issue to take place in the gathering hall and it was the pervious meeting when the SRA sighted an Ethiopian officer sitting in the reconciliation hall, and this has created the SRA members to vacate the hall.

Ethiopian is the immediate neighbor of Somalia, and it is the first country to deploy troops in Somalia after the government of headed by president Abdullahi Yussuf was established in the Kenyan capital Nairobi, and it was it that gave the total access of the feeble Somali government reach in capital Mogadishu in late 2006.

Hundreds of people have fled from their houses due to the barrages of the Ethiopian troops and are now helplessly scattered on the road between Mogadishu and Afgoi district which is some 30KM from the capital Mogadishu.
