Somalia: Ethiopian-backed RRA faction voices opposition
to Djibouti peace plan
BBC MONITORING INTERNATIONAL REPORTS , March 13, 2000 Text of report by Somali
newspaper 'Ayaamaha' on 12th March The chairman of the RRA (Rahaweyn Resistance Army),
Hasan Muhammad Nur (Shargadud), has joined other faction leaders in opposing the
forthcoming Somali national conference in Djibouti. "It is important that the
Djibouti conference be delayed because the Somali problem basically emanates from
inter-clan conflicts. Before any such a conference is held, the warring clans should be
reconciled and territories occupied by rival clans returned to their rightful
owners," the RRA boss said. Source: 'Ayaamaha', Mogadishu, in Somali 12 Mar 00 p 2
