"The President expressed his gratitude and appreciation to the Government and people of Russia for their generous support in Somalia’s HIPC debt relief process.” A statement from Villa Somalia read.
The meeting comes amid the African Union forces are withdrawing from Somalia and the government is facing backlash in the fight against the terrorist group Al-Shabab.Several villages liberated by the Somali National Army has been recaptured by the Shabab in an apparent comeback.
It remains unclear how Russia will involve itself in Somalia’s security, though Russian president Vladimir Putin has been extending his influence by sending military advisers to other African nations recently.
