There is renewed hope for the peace process in Somalia, said U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattisfollowing a recent British-sponsored conference on Somalia in London.


Secretary Mattis told reporters that he had a productive meeting with Somali PresidentMohamed Abdullah Mohamed. The United States, he said, has a role to play in Somalia, and inhelping that nation defeat al-Shabaab, a vicious terrorist group. The United Nations, theAfrican Union and the European Union joined with Arab, African and European nations to discussthe way forward.


Mattis said Somalia has an economic and a governmental program to put it back on its feet, andthat international support is crucial to the process.


So, we were working on how the future looks and what nations could commit what to what andget the framework right, Mattis said. It includes on the security side both a continuedmaturation of their security forces in the defenses against al-Shabaab, but it also includes areconciliation program designed to pull the fence-sitters and the middle-of-the-roaders awayfrom al-Shabaab. It's very well put together.


The holistic approach to the situation in Somalia is the one that has a chance of succeeding,Mattis said.


There is certainly an attitude of renewed hope based on the election of what appears to be avery good leader in terms of understanding the need for military security, but as welleconomic efforts, and certainly reconciliation is going to have to mark this way forward, aswell, he said.


Mattis praised the African Union peacekeeping mission in Somalia, saying the African UnionMission in Somalia troops have done a good job in a difficult position.


For years, AMISOM and the Somali soldiers have fought against a pretty tough enemy that hassworn allegiance. . .to al-Qaida, Secretary Mattis said. It's an enemy that's got to be foughtand the people have to be defended. The United States is committed to doing its part.


索马里和平进程又有了新的进展,近日美国国防部部长马蒂斯(James Mattis)出访了伦敦,参加了当地主办方举行的与索马里事宜有关的会议,随后马蒂斯发表了上述讲话。


马蒂斯向记者表示自己与索马里总统穆罕默德 阿卜杜拉希(Mohamed Abdullahi)进行了卓有成效的会晤。穆罕默德表示,美国在叙利亚大有可为,可以助力叙利亚打击青年党(al-Shabaab)这个穷凶极恶的恐怖组织。美国、非盟、欧盟已加入阿拉伯、非洲、欧洲等国讨论未来的方案。


马蒂斯表示,索马里有经济方案和政府方案可以让其恢复生机,而国际社会对索马里的支持对恢复生机的进程极为重要。


所以,我们正在思考未来的蓝图以及各个国家能为这份蓝图的正确制定贡献怎样的力量,马蒂斯如是说道。从安全方面来讲,既要持续完善安全部队,以抗击青年党,也要建立调解机制,让中立方不为青年党所动。这两点结合在一起效果卓著。


用整体观来应对索马里的局势是有希望成功的,马蒂斯说。


索马里自然是有希望重燃希望的,因为其新任总统深谙军事安全和经济发展的必要,而未来的调解也要往这个方向走,马蒂斯说。


马蒂斯还赞扬了非盟驻索马里的维和部队,称他们在艰巨的环境下表现出色。


 


多年来,非盟驻索马里特派团(AMISOM)和索马里部队一直在抗击执迷不悟的棘手对手,那就是青年党,马蒂斯如是说道。青年党是必除的敌人,而人民是必保的对象。美国始终致力于此。
