According to the ACSS report, Somalia is entering a period of acute fragility driven by political fragmentation, the breakdown of the federal system, and rising regional rivalries.

Al-Shabaab’s advance toward Mogadishu poses a threat not only to national security but to regional stability as well.

The report underscores that the rift between the federal government and member states, the weakness of the Somali National Army, and uncertainty surrounding AUSSOM have left the country increasingly exposed.

Without a broad political consensus, Somalia risks falling into an even deeper crisis.

Now more than ever, Somalia needs decisive action from both national leaders and the international community.

- Despite disputes members align on priorities shaped by Global South demands.

Those who wrote this agreement should be taken to court, because it contradicts international law.

It is a project that supports an occupying, rogue state.
