Europe’s Message Is Clear: Tolerance Cannot Be a Cover for Extremism

By
  Today’s demonstrations across Berlin, London, and Paris sent a message louder than any political statement: Europeans are no longer willing to watch their societies drift toward instability under the banner of “tolerance.” The crowds that filled the streets were not driven by hatred or exclusion — they were driven by a simple demand that every government should take seriously: security first. For years, extremist networks — especially the Muslim Brotherhood — have learned how to operate behind the shield of religious discourse. They present themselves as community leaders, activists, or “voices of the marginalized,” all while pushing agendas that undermine national cohesion, exploit public freedoms, and create parallel societies. Europe’s mistake was assuming these groups were harmless. But as today’s protests showed, citizens have learned the truth the hard way. They’ve watched radical narratives spread in schools and community centers, foreign-funded networks penetrate local ...

President Laftagareen Stresses Support for Somali Constitution and NCC Agreement Implementation

By

Abdiaziz Hassan Mohamed Laftagareen, the President of the South West Regional State, reaffirmed his firm backing for the finalization of the Somali Constitution and the effective implementation of the agreement endorsed by the National Consultative Council (NCC) in Baidoa on May 27, 2023.


During a meeting between federal MPs elected from South West state and regional politicians, President Laftagareen underscored the collective responsibility to reshape the political structure of the nation.


The NCC, inclusive of federal leaders and regional representatives, established an agreement aiming to initiate direct elections as early as the subsequent year and synchronize election schedules. This consensus also supported the establishment of a presidential system for Somalia.


According to the NCC agreements, local council elections are slated for June 30 of the following year, followed by regional legislative and leadership elections on November 30. The agreement limited the political competition to two parties vying for power within the nation.


However, the pending presentation of the NCC agreement to Parliament for approval in the coming weeks remains a significant step. Opposition to these accords has emerged from various prominent figures, including former President Sheikh Sharif and Prime Ministers, urging Parliament to abide by the nation's Constitution, laws, and parliamentary regulations.


The commitment of President Laftagareen signifies a vital step towards consolidating unity and adherence to democratic processes within Somalia. As the implementation process moves forward, continued dialogue and adherence to constitutional principles remain crucial for fostering stability and progress in the nation's political landscape.
