The United States has reiterated its support for the efforts designed to create a truly independent media in Somalia.
The US has been actively supporting efforts to build a free and professional media sector in Somalia.
Earlier this week, officials from the US Embassy in Somalia led by Ambassador Richard H. Riley met with Daud Series, the Minister of Information, Culture, and Tourism.
They met when Aweis led other ministry officials in visiting the US Embassy in Mogadishu.
This support often includes funding for training journalists, promoting press freedom, and helping to establish independent media organizations.
These efforts are crucial for enhancing transparency, accountability, and democratic governance in the country.
