Storyline:National News

As Copenhagen New deal conference is expected to open next week the government of Denmark has cancelled the plans of Somali community’s meeting with Somali president Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.

Denmark’s move is attributed to the political in-fighting between the top leaders of Somalia that might decline the co-operation between international community and Somali government.

Over 400 Somali community in different parts of the world were invited to part in the New Deal conference in Copenhegan.

The United States recently said it will not take part in the high level partnership forum on Somalia to review the progress under the New Deal due to Somalia’s leadership that is distracted with political division.

“ United States does not see the utility in sending a delegation to the High Level Partnership Forum on Somalia, which will meet next week in Copenhagen” the statement said.
