Asmara — The 2nd Central Committee meeting of the Alliance for Re-Liberation of Somalia opened yesterday here in Asmara.
Speaking at the opening session, the Acting Chairman of the Alliance, Dr. Zekaria Mahmoud Abdi, pointed out that the meeting is being held at a time when the Somali issue has reached a complicated stage and when the super powers, especially the US Administration, are officially backing Ethiopia's occupation of Somalia. He further underscored that even the United Nations, instead of striving to resolve the problem in accordance with its Charter, is being part and parcel of the problem.
Dr. Zekaria went on to explain that the UN has orchestrated the foiled conspiracy of so-called Djibouti agreement, thus fully attesting to such a double standard. He exposed that those who participated in the scheme are the ones who have fallen into the trap either driven by self-interest or intimidation.
Noting that the Somali popular opposition against the Ethiopian invasion is gaining added momentum, Dr. Zekaria indicated that the invading Ethiopian Army and its collaborators are suffering heavy loss and defeat, and that over 95% of Somali territory is now under the full control of the ARS fighters. He underlined that the major victories which the Somali freedom fighters are scoring on the ground are vivid demonstration of the failure of enemy conspiracy.
