The last American soldiers have left Somalia, one month before the elections
© AFP / Archivos American troops have left Somalia. The information was confirmed this weekend by Africom, the US military commander in Africa. Washington had around 700 troops stationed in the country at all times, but President Donald Trump had ordered their withdrawal in mid-December. With our correspondent in Nairobi, Sébastien Németh The presidential directive has been followed. And the American soldiers withdrew even two days ahead of schedule. Operation Linda Nchi (Swahili: Linda Nchi; "Protect the Country ") was an operation where the Kenya Defence Forces entered southern Somalia beginning in 2011. The Kenyan government declared the operation completed in March 2012

Each side accuses the other of launching hostilities, but Mogadishu further says the assault came from a neighboring "Kenya ally". Tensions are high between the two countries, to the point that Somalia severed diplomatic ties with Nairobi last month.
The ally in question could be Abdirashid Janan. The Jubaland Minister of Security is indeed close to Nairobi. He escaped from a prison in Mogadishu a year ago and is believed to be a refugee on the Kenyan side of the border, where he is said to have mobilized his forces.
A strategic regionThe attacked region encompasses many issues as well. It is one of the clan strongholds of Somali President Mohamed Farmajo. He wants to garner support there before the April presidential election. It is also an area rich in fertile land. Finally Jubaland and its leader Ahmed Madobe are in conflict with the head of state. There are two opposing views: Farmajo has a centralized conception of Somali power, while Madobe wants him more autonomy for his region.
The Somali head of state has long tried to destabilize the area, not only by appointing relatives, but also by deploying federal troops. A situation monitored closely, because the Kenyan and Ethiopian armies are very close. The slightest spark could have serious consequences.
