Kampala will convene the Troop Contributing Countries (TCC) Summit on April 23 to address urgent funding shortfalls facing the African Union Support and Stabilization Mission in Somalia (AUSSOM).
Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and regional leaders are set to attend as the mission struggles with declining support from international partners.
The summit aims to secure sustainable financing to sustain AUSSOM operations, critical for Somalia’s security amid ongoing threats from Al-Shabaab.
Uganda, a key troop contributor, seeks stronger commitments from global stakeholders to ensure the mission’s stability.
