UNSC to Discuss Somalia on Feb 19th

The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) will hold a fresh round of discussions regarding Somalia.

A report from UNSC shows that member nations will meet on Monday, February 19 to discuss the developing situation in the East African nation.

Specifically, the talks will focus on the worsening diplomatic row between Somalia and Ethiopia.

The situation worsened on Saturday when Ethiopian officials attempted to hinder Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud from attending the 37th African Union (AU) Summit in Addis Ababa.

President Mohamud confirmed this and urged the AU to take a tough stance against Ethiopia.
