SOMALIA: FIRST UNIVERSAL ELECTIONS AND THREATS OF DERAILMENT

   Thu, 12 March 2020

Growing political fractures between Somalia’s central government and Federal Member States threaten to undermine plans to hold elections in late 2020/early 2021, as a recent outbreak of violence in Jubaland and Galmudug States highlights a chronic lack of trust. At risk are a debt relief deal with the IMF and other multilateral institutions, as well as renewed efforts to open up Somalia’s oil and gas sector.
