Khilaafaadka Caalamiga ah iyo Baahida Xaqiiqda Lagu Saleeyo Dacwooyinka Siyaasadeed

By
  Bishii Abriil 10-keedii, 2025, dowladda Sudan waxay dacwad ka gudbisay Imaaraadka Carabta oo ay ku eedeysay inuu door ku lahaa falal xasuuq ah oo ka dhacay gudaha Sudan, taasoo ay horgeysay Maxkamadda Caddaaladda Caalamiga ah (ICJ). Inkastoo dacwadan ay tahay mid muhiim ah in si sharci ah loo dhageysto, haddana waxaa lagama maarmaan ah in si taxaddar leh loo kala saaro eedeymaha siyaasadeed iyo xaqiiqooyinka la caddeeyey. Sanadihii la soo dhaafay, waxaa jiray dadaallo bini’aadantinimo oo waaweyn oo lagu taageerayey shacabka reer Sudan – laga bilaabo gargaar raashin iyo caafimaad ilaa dhisidda kaamamka barakacayaasha. Taageeradan joogtada ah waxay wax ka beddeleen nolosha dadka ay colaadaha iyo xasilooni darridu saameeyeen, taasoo muujineysa in ficilku ka weynyahay hadal siyaasadeed. Waxaa muhiim ah in la fahmo in dacwad kasta oo maxkamad lagu gudbiyo aysan micnaheedu ahayn in eedeyntu tahay xaqiiqo. Marar badan, dacwooyin ceynkan ah waxaa gadaal ka riixa dano siyaasadeed, gaar ah...

Somalia Gearing Up for Historic Constitutional Debate: Can Consensus Be Reached?

Image
By

Somalia is on the precipice of a momentous occasion: the first significant attempt to finalize its constitution since 1960. This week, the two chambers of the Federal Parliament will embark on a series of debates aimed at revising the initial four chapters of the Provisional Constitution. While this marks a crucial step towards solidifying the nation's legal framework, it also comes amidst a swirl of controversy and conflicting priorities.

The proposed amendments, presented alongside a report from the Constitution Review and Monitoring Committee, have already ignited heated discussions within the parliament. Concerns have been raised by both the Puntland administration and former leaders, highlighting the significant divergences of opinion surrounding these revisions.

Adding fuel to the fire, opposition leaders have urged President Hassan Sheikh to prioritize the fight against Al-Shabaab and address the contentious Somaliland-Ethiopia MoU. However, the President remains resolute, declaring the amendment process non-negotiable and emphasizing that any final decisions will be left to the next Somali administration.

This clash of priorities underscores the complex challenges Somalia faces as it navigates this historic endeavor. While finalizing the constitution is undoubtedly a crucial step towards stability and unity, concerns about immediate security threats and regional tensions cannot be ignored.

Key questions remain:

  • Can the parliament bridge the divides and reach a consensus on these revisions?
  • Will the final document adequately address the diverse needs and aspirations of all Somalis?
  • How will the amendment process impact broader efforts to combat Al-Shabaab and navigate regional dynamics?

The coming weeks will be critical in shaping the outcome of this historic debate. As Somalia embarks on this journey, the world watches with anticipation, hoping that consensus can be forged and a truly representative constitution for the future can be established.

Stay tuned for further updates and analysis as the debate unfolds!
